Hi Jelle,

(please Cc: linux-input ML for such questions, as I'm not the only one
 decide about that topic ... )

Good to see more users of the driver, and merging back your changes is
definitely appreciated.

Yes. This driver has active users, so all changes should be
backwards-compatible. We could introduce an "initial_value", but I'm
against deprecating the "steps" parameter.

No, they're not. One is an axis information, the other one is a button.
I have no problem adding the feature for button event generation,
though.

Could you send your changes as patch against the current kernel's git
HEAD please? That's much easier to review.

Thanks,
Daniel
