Input: uinput - sanity check on ff_effects_max and EV_FF
Currently the user can set ff_effects_max to zero with the EV_FF bit (and the FF_GAIN and/or FF_AUTOCENTER bits) set, in this case the uninitialized methods ff->set_gain and/or ff->set_autocenter can be dereferenced, resulting in a kernel oops. Check in uinput_create_device() and print a helpful message and return -EINVAL in case the check fails.
