Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

I've been programming a game in SDL and I was surprised that SDL was
reporting that 1 joystick was connected when there were none. SDL
provides the name as "A4Tech USB Full Speed". "ls /dev/input" shows one
joystick connected:

by-id    event0  event2  event4  event6  event8  mice    mouse1
by-path  event1  event3  event5  event7  js0     mouse0

lsusb shows my mouse as:

Bus 003 Device 003: ID 09da:8090 A4 Tech Co., Ltd

Unplugging the mouse makes /dev/input/js0 disappear.
