Sorry, this will be a little confusing.

I just realized that there are actually two hidraw devices showing
up.

One with this descriptor:
0x05, 0x01, // Usage Page (Generic Desktop Ctrls)
0x09, 0x00, // Usage (Undefined)
0xA1, 0x01, // Collection (Application)
0x15, 0x00, // Logical Minimum (0)
0x25, 0x01, // Logical Maximum (1)
0x75, 0x01, // Report Size (1)
0x05, 0x09, // Usage Page (Button)
0x19, 0x01, // Usage Minimum (0x01)
0x29, 0x3F, // Usage Maximum (0x3F)
0x95, 0x40, // Report Count (64)
0x81, 0x02, // Input (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position)
0xC0, // End Collection

Output from hid-recorder:
E: 000074.735891 8 20 00 ed 03 00 00 00 cc
# Button: 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 , 1

At a first glance, it did look as the button bits follows the same
pattern as the joystick axis in the descriptor below. It is hard to
debug though, as it causes random clicks and button presses
everywhere... and it driving me nuts.

The other one looks like this:
0x05, 0x01, // Usage Page (Generic Desktop Ctrls)
0x09, 0x04, // Usage (Joystick)
0xA1, 0x01, // Collection (Application)

0xC0, // End Collection
0x05, 0x09, // Usage Page (Button)

0x95, 0x01, // Report Count (1)
0x75, 0x06, // Report Size (6)
0x81, 0x01, // Input (Const,Array,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position)
0x09, 0x00, // Usage (0x00)
0x15, 0x00, // Logical Minimum (0)
0x26, 0xFF, 0x00, // Logical Maximum (255)
0x75, 0x08, // Report Size (8)
0x95, 0x08, // Report Count (8)
0xB1, 0x02, // Feature (Data,Var,Abs,No Wrap,Linear,Preferred State,No Null Position,Non-volatile)
0xC0, // End Collection

Output from hid-recorder:
E: 000013.240054 7 00 00 00 00 80 00 00
# X: 110 | Y: 122 | Z: 0 | Button: 0 0 | #

The controller does only support 2 axis (X/Y) and no buttons, so this
descriptor is wrong in any way.
I see that it makes use of Feature as well.
Does this feature have something to do with the first HID device?

This report is more of what I want it to look like.

I got the same "usb 3-12.3.1.3.1: input irq status -75 received" error
when using this descriptor though.
I think it is beacause it is applied to both hid-devices?
