Seems pretty straightforward. They hook DirectInputCreateA() and pass their own device enumeration wrapper with the offending flag removed.
The flag DIDEVTYPE_JOYSTICK was added by this fix not removed.
The idea is, rather than handle up to 8 devices, otherwise UB and usually crash, handle up to 8 "joysticks" and disregard any beyond that.
I'd just use WineD3D in this case; I'm sure there's dinput.dll too ported to Wine for Windows.
Apologies, that's what I meant to say. I blame that on my lack of coffee today, my bad.
