Version 2.2:

  - Make linux_js.ko depend on the linux module, otherwise it won't
    load unless the linux module is loaded or compiled into the kernel
  - Conditionalize Linux mode support

Version 2.1:

  - A 5.x build failure has been fixed
  - A minor formatting issue in the linux_js manpage has been fixed

Version 2.0:

  - USB joystick support has been added
  - Calling select() with a large timeout did not work properly: fixed
  - Short reads (< sizeof(struct js_event)) did not work: fixed
  - The JSIOCGCORR/JSCIOCSCORR ioctls now handle all the axes
  - Each joystick is now presented as a separate js device
  - A manual page has been added

Add linux-js.
