I've encountered another multi-input device that needs the skip output
reports quirk (as it contains force feedback output reports), 0925:8866.
However, maybe we should use another approach, dropping
HID_QUIRK_SKIP_OUTPUT_REPORTS. Why not just *not* register the input
device for that report in case the report didn't contain anything that
was mapped by hidinput_configure_usage(), in hidinput_connect()?

as long as we still have the possibility to see the coming data in debug 
mode, I don't have objection to that.

Okay.

Are you going to make that patch?

Not right now, maybe in a few weeks.

I will meanwhile queue the patch below, ok? After the hidinput_connect() 
is refactored to ignore devices for which the mappings haven't been 
established, we could then remove all the devices for which we have 
HID_QUIRK_SKIP_OUTPUT_REPORTS altogether.

Ok.

BTW, do you happen to have any idea whether the Quad joypad needs this 
quirk too?

No, but I guess it is quite probable.

Thanks.
