[PATCH 3.18 30/83] Input: xpad - x360w: report dpad as buttons and axes

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Nov 29 2018 - 09:14:32 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 5ee8bda943de20017636845a5c8d7069a4a283b8 ]

as discussed here[0], x360w is the only pad that maps dpad_to_button.
This is bad for downstream developers as they have to differ between
x360 and x360w which is not intuitive.

This patch implements the suggested solution of exposing the dpad both
as axes and as buttons. This retains backward compatibility with software
already dealing with the difference while makes new software work as
expected across x360/ x360w pads.
