[RFC] HID:hid-lg4ff: Delay to allow wheels to center after plug-in

[Simon Wood]

A number of wheels (G27/etc) do a little full right/full left 'dance'
when first plugged in. This patch inserts a delay so that this 'dance'
is completed before we disable (set to zero) the autocenter spring.

A side benefit is that the DFGT was confused without the delay, and is
now correctly being set to 900' rotation mode.

Side Effect - and the reason I am sending as RFC. This 8s delay seems
to have an effect on other wheels connected at the same time.

With 3 wheels on a hub, and then the hub connected to PC. The wheel
on the right in video below waits for G27 to complete this 8s, before
it will do it's 'dance' and register with the system.

I don't know if this is a problem, or if someone here has suggestions
on a better way to implement the delay...
