Hi.
ADI_INIT_DELAY/ADI_DATA_DELAY doesn't have to be exact, and a longer
sleep doesn't matter. In the initilization sequence - first chunk of
your patch - a way too long delay could in theory make the device fail
to initialize. What's critical is that the mdelay() calls are precise.
One day I'll open my box of old joystick and re-test these drivers to
see if they survived the years of kernel infrastructure updates ...
