gf2k_read() decodes the hat position from a 4-bit field and uses it
directly to index gf2k_hat_to_axis[]. The lookup table only has nine
entries, so malformed packets can read past the end of the fixed table.

Clamp invalid hat values to the neutral position before indexing the
lookup table.

I think if "t" is too bug we should skip the loop instead of reporting
the first axis.

Thanks.
