Corsair Novablade Pro & 8BitDo Pro 2 Controllers To Be Supported With Linux 7.3-rc7

Sent out today as part of this week's input subsystem fixes are device ID additions to the XPad driver for enabling two more gaming controllers to work nicely under Linux. The Corsair Novablade Pro controller is now supported by the open-source XPad driver both in its wired and 2.4GHz wireless receiver modes. The Corsair Novablade Pro is designed for fighting games and features 15 adjustable buttons with 8x programmable G keys, MGX Hyperdrive Hall Effect magnetic switches, and is a premium product retailing for $190+ USD. The other new controller supported for today's Linux 7.3-rc7 release is the 8BitDo Pro 2 Wired Controller designed for Xbox gaming. The XPad driver already supported an earlier version of the 8BitDo Pro 2 Wired Controller, but a new hardware revision was issued that also changed the product ID. Thus the XPad driver now updated for this newer version of the 8BitDo Pro 2 wired controller. That controller retails for around $35 USD. These gaming controller additions were sent out today as part of the input fixes pull request.
