Exactly! This seems to have resolved my problem. I did several tries and 
so far no more crashes.

Thank you very much for finding this one! I don't think I would have 
ever found that one and maybe had given up at last...

Now I can continue with some code cleanup, adding the rumble code for 
PS4 and finally I'll have to find a way to get the common "emulated 
events" for memoryless devices. One solution would be to try to get 
ff_memless connected with uinput via kernel patch. I'll give that a try 
first.
