Description

My PS3 controller inputs are beyond messed up. It's a Generic "clone-like" controller (the cheap "fake" ones).

Some of the keys behave as follows:
- `L2` and `R2` are the Right Stick
- `L1`, `R1` and `Circle` doesn't have any input (and cannot be used as one)
- `Cross` is Circle

I tried alternatives using Arch Linux **gamepad** wiki and didn't succeed. For instance, I was able to map keys with `xboxdrv`, but the keys stated previously in 2nd point simply doesn't exist and/or cannot be mapped. I hope the information below can be helpful in any way:
```py
usb 3-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0c12, idProduct=0e16, bcdDevice= 1.00
input: Sony Interactive Entertainment PC/PS3/Android Gamepad as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:74:00.4/usb3/3-1/3-1:1.3/0003:0C12:0E16.0005/input/input22

Laptop is a Nitro V15 with:
- NVidia GeForce RTX 4050
- AMD Ryzen 7 7735HS
- 16GB Ram (DDR5)
- 512GB SSD
```
> This controller worked without an issue on Windows 10/11 and Bazzite (Linux)
