7.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jiangshan Yi <[email protected]>

commit d723bc1fe2e72b9252234e94c11af644ec477bf7 upstream.

input_register_device() exposes the device to userspace immediately.
In joycon_input_create() it was called before joycon_config_rumble()
configures the FF_RUMBLE capability and the memless force-feedback
device, so a concurrent EVIOCSFF could dereference a NULL dev->ff.

Registering early also means the initial udev event lacks button and
axis information, which can make input managers ignore the device.

Move input_register_device() to the end of joycon_input_create(), after
all capabilities, the IMU input device and the force-feedback callbacks
have been configured.
