Hmm... This was actually my first shot, and I noticed that the
flickering original Z axis was now taking over the correct X axis. So
that's why I added some complexity to ignore at the HID level this axis.
I just forgot to update the comment :)

If you think this patch is good enough (you will get flickering X), we
can carry on this one, but I think the one I submitted (with the comment
edited) would provide a better experience.

Cheers,
Benjamin
