Sorry for not providing a proper patch, could you please also add
        {0x46d, 0xc294, hid_lgff_init}, // Logitech G25 wheel
to the list? I tested it here and that wheel is also working.

OK.

Hmm.. Shouldn't an entry also be added to the devices[] list in
hid-lgff.c for these devices? (and it seems one device is already
missing from there in the current kernel).

I'm not able to check right now, but I think some earlier kernels may
have defaulted to ff_joystick if no entry is present in devices[], hence
these devices working for some without the entry.
(so the alternative is to restore that behaviour)

Yes, defaulting to joystick was the way it was when I wrote hid-lgff.c, and
I guess Valentin made his original patch on a kernel where defaulting was
still there.
I'll send a separate mail with the patch adding the devices there too, but I
personally think defaulting was nice. Was there a reason behind the removal?
