Hi Philip,

this device is already properly handled by HID since 2.6.21-rc1. 

In addition to what you did (HID_QUIRK_MULTI_INPUT), it is also needed to 
handle the fact that the device also uses one output report per controller 
(on the same interface), that controls the force feedback. It is not 
desired to have these as separate input devices. Current HID code skips 
output reports on this device, and lets force feedback driver to take care 
of them.
