Fixed bug 2833 - Access Violation on SDL_PollEvent after init, delay …

…and quit of joystick subsystem Jan Klass Not sure if this is limited to the joystick subsystem, but I created a minimal program for reproducibility, which is attached. The issue occurs with my gamepad Razer Onza (an xbox-style gamepad) plugged in. On initialization, the gamepad is being recognized. After quitting the subsystem, the poll will receive the joystick added event, which it instantly handles itself, calling SDL_SYS_JoystickDetect again, which this time calls IDirectInput8_EnumDevices with dinput = NULL (after it was released on quit). This seems to lead to an access violation within said function, which I have no source for.
