Original grabbed joystick device causing problems in hidraw mode

See original GitHub issue

When using the hidraw mode, ds4drv grabs the original joystick device (provided by the kernel drivers) and creates a new device. The original device is still present for the rest of the system, but it is disabled. Seems like the original device is causing problems. -@Ape

As above. Running either minecraft 1.7.10 with liteloader installed or FEZ from steam with this running causes a hang in both, and both remain hung until ds4drv is killed. Immediatly after running systemctl stop ds4drv.service both resume function, while the latter, even if I kill all steam and such processes continues to run in D state, and will not even respond to SIGKILL, but once I disable it it kills off properly.

I would close this issue, but changing to non-hidraw mode is more of a workaround than an actual fix.
