nirenjan aa95ed306f Fix multiple virtual wheel events with noisy input 
Prior to this change, the x52d virtual mouse logic was assuming that the
joystick would only send one report with the wheel button state as "on",
and subsequent reports would be "off". However, with some joysticks, the
other axis sensors could be faulty or noisy, and the joystick could send
multiple reports with the mouse button "on", without an "off" state in
between. This was causing scroll events to be much faster than would be
expected (1 mouse scroll to 1 screen scroll event)

This change should fix the problem, by comparing the value of the
previous button state. This should now trigger a wheel event only on a
rising edge (from "off" to "on").

See #46

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.
