Subject: [PATCH] HID: pidff: Use correct effect type in effect update
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When updating an existing effect, the effect type from the last created
effect was sent to the device instead of the updated one.
This caused incorrect reports when a game creates multiple different
effects and updates only one that is not the last created.

Fixes FFB in multiple games that create multiple simultaneous effects
(Forza Horizon 5/6).

Fixes: 224ee88fe395 ("Input: add force feedback driver for PID devices")
