+    dix: don't emulate scroll events for non-existing axes (#47281)
+    
+    Test case:
+    - create a device with REL_HWHEEL and ABS_X and ABS_Y. evdev 2.7.0 will set
+      that up as device with 1 relative axis
+    - move pointer to VGA1
+    - xrandr --output VGA1 --off
+    
+    Warps the pointer to the new spot and calls GPE with the x/y mask bits set.
+    When running through the loop to check for scroll event, this overruns the
+    axes and may try to emulate scroll events based on random garbage in the
+    memory. If that memory contained non-zero for the scroll type but near-zero
+    for the increment field, the server would hang in an infinite loop.
+    
+    This was the trigger for this suggested, never-merged, patch here:
+    http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/9543/
