[PATCH 07/21] HID: emsff: move FF initialization to .input_configured()

Dmitry Torokhov <[email protected]> Mon, 03 Aug 2026 11:46:32 -0700
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-input,org.kernel.vger.linux-doc,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
The driver currently initializes force-feedback in its probe() function
after calling hid_hw_start() with HID_CONNECT_DEFAULT. This is racy as
the input device is already registered and visible to userspace at that
point.

Move the FF initialization to the .input_configured() callback to ensure
the device is fully prepared before registration.
