[PATCH 19/21] HID: megaworld: move FF initialization to .input_configured()
From: Dmitry Torokhov
Date: Mon Aug 03 2026 - 14:55:09 EST
The driver currently initializes force-feedback in its probe() function
after calling hid_hw_start(). This is racy as the input device is
already registered and visible to userspace at that point.
Move the FF initialization to the .input_configured() callback to ensure
the device is fully prepared before registration.
