Currently linux joystick support is limited to 80 buttons.

The default value for the max scan code that a key/button can have in 
the linux kernel is 0x2ff (767), which is equivalent to 80 keys/buttons.

The value i propose in the bellow patch is 0x31d (797) which is +30 
buttons, so a max of 110 keys/buttons.

Works perfectly with WINWING Orion Throttle Base II + F15EX HANDLE, all 
110 buttons are recognized (is the joystick i found to have the biggest 
amount of buttons so far).

That device will be supported in 6.19, including LED controls. I have 
also posted a patch to enable rumble feedback.
