Bug Description

Hi,

I have a MP-8866 Joystick in Ubuntu 14.04 but DOWN and RIGHT control doesn't work. Evtest doesn't recognize it but recognize all others buttons.
I think it's kernel related because everything works fine in 3.2.62
I tested with 3.16.1 but the result is the same : not working
It's almost the same issue as this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1077359
And the problem is describe here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2140108

It's an old bug but I haven't see any similar report.

Here lsub command :
