Bug#1042941: xboxdrv: 1 minute delay before passing through events

[cacatoes at tuxfamily.org]

Package: xboxdrv
Version: 0.8.8-3
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: cacatoes at tuxfamily.org

Dear Maintainers,

I encounter a problem which has been described in a github issue[1], 
with a given patch[2] which hasn't been applied upstream since the 
project isn't very active.

[1]: https://github.com/xboxdrv/xboxdrv/issues/144
[2]: 
https://github.com/xboxdrv/xboxdrv/pull/214/files/7326421eeaadbc2aeb3828628c2e65bb7be323a9

With my device (Logitech rumblepad 2), I have to wait one minute after 
running xboxdrv before being able to use my gamepad.

I'm using this command to run it:

# xboxdrv --evdev 
/dev/input/by-id/usb-Logitech_Logitech_RumblePad_2_USB-event-joystick 
--evdev-absmap 
ABS_X=x1,ABS_Y=y1,ABS_HAT0X=dpad_x,ABS_HAT0Y=dpad_y,ABS_Z=y2,ABS_RZ=x2 
--evdev-keymap 
BTN_THUMB=a,BTN_THUMB2=b,BTN_TRIGGER=y,BTN_TOP=x,BTN_TOP2=lb,BTN_PINKIE=rb,BTN_BASE=lt,BTN_BASE2=rt,BTN_BASE3=Back,BTN_BASE4=Start 
--axismap -Y1=Y1,-Y2=Y2 --mimic-xpad

I confirm applying the small patch helps making my controller work right 
after running xboxdrv, and not having to wait.

I have no github account, but that could be nice to tell upstream this 
patch fixes it here.

Have a good day,
