nirenjan 7d757dd40f Disable device check routine in daemon 
Prior to this change, the device check was sending a vendor specific
command with wIndex and wValue both set to 0 every 50 ms. On some
systems, this was causing issues with the joystick flapping the state,
and reporting weird values from the stick, and generally sluggish
response.

This change uses the updated libx52 library which uses the hotplug
notification to determine if the device is connected, and should resolve
the issues seen.

Fixes #33

Saitek X52Pro joystick driver for Linux

Build/Test Kernel Module CodeQL

This project adds a new driver for the Saitek/MadCatz X52 Pro flight control system. The X52 pro is a HOTAS (hand on throttle and stick) with 7 axes, 39 buttons, 1 hat and 1 thumbstick and a multi-function display which is programmable.

Currently, only Windows drivers are available from Saitek PLC, which led me to develop a new Linux driver which can program the MFD and the individual LEDs on the joystick. The standard usbhid driver is capable of reading the joystick, but it cannot control the MFD or LEDs.

Most of the extra functionality can be handled from userspace. See the individual folders for README information.

Note: This repository currently only provides commandline interfaces to control the MFD and LEDs. If you are not comfortable working in the commandline, then the gx52 project might be a better fit for your needs as it provides a graphical interface to control the MFD and LEDs.
