I have created a bz for this issue as well - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2293600

In my digging, it seems that the 6.9+ kernels do not have the xpad kernel module (running # sudo modprobe xpad returns no value)

A workaround was to manually install xone or xpad kernel module and self sign the key (keeping secure boot intact) however, this is somewhat tedious since it did work before.
