On heavy event loads, such as a multitouch driver, the irqsoff latency
can be as high as 250 us.  By accumulating a frame worth of data
before passing it on, the latency can be dramatically reduced.  As a
side effect, the special EV_SYN handling can be removed, since the
frame is now atomic.

This patch adds the events() handler callback and uses it if it
exists. The latency is improved by 50 us even without the callback.

The events-per-packet estimate has so far been used by MT devices
only. This patch adjusts the packet buffer size to also accomodate the
KEY and MSC events.  Keyboards normally send one or two keys at a
time. MT devices normally send a number of button keys along with the
MT information.  The buffer size chosen here covers those cases, and
matches the default buffer size in evdev. Since the input estimate is
now preferred, remove the special input-mt estimate.

Apparently there exist userspace programs that expect to be able to

handler broke them. Now that SysRq uses alternative method to suppress

Looking at the uevent stream for input devices, all properties are on
the form "A=B" except the bitmap values, which are on the form
"A==B". This bug has been around at least since 2007, and the input

Today, userspace sets up an input device based on the data it emits.
This is not always enough; a tablet and a touchscreen may emit exactly
the same data, for instance, but the former should be set up with a
pointer whereas the latter does not need to. Recently, a new type of
touchpad has emerged where the buttons are under the pad, which
changes logic without changing the emitted data. This patch introduces
a new ioctl, EVIOCGPROP, which enables user access to a set of device
properties useful during setup. The properties are given as a bitmap
in the same fashion as the event types, and are also made available
via sysfs, uevent and /proc/bus/input/devices.

Sometimes input handlers (as opposed to input devices) have a need to
inject (or re-inject) events back into input core. For example sysrq
filter may want to inject previously suppressed Alt-SysRq so that user
can take a screen print. In this case we do not want to pass such events
back to the same same handler that injected them to avoid loops.

KGDB, much like the resume process, needs to be able to mark all keys that
were pressed at the time we dropped into the debuggers as "released", since
it is unlikely that the keys stay pressed for the entire duration of the
debug session.

Also we need to make sure that input_reset_device() and input_dev_suspend()
only attempt to change state of currenlt opened devices since closed devices
may not be ready to accept IO requests.

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not

Several devices use a high number of bits for scancodes. One important
group is the Remote Controllers. Some new protocols like RC-6 define a
scancode space of 64 bits.

The current EVIO[CS]GKEYCODE ioctls allow replace the scancode/keycode
translation tables, but it is limited to up to 32 bits for scancode.

Also, if userspace wants to clean the existing table, replacing it by
a new one, it needs to run a loop calling the ioctls over the entire
sparse scancode space.

To solve those problems, this patch extends the ioctls to allow drivers
handle scancodes up to 32 bytes long (the length could be extended in
the future should such need arise) and allow userspace to query and set
scancode to keycode mappings not only by scancode but also by index.

Compatibility code were also added to handle the old format of
EVIO[CS]GKEYCODE ioctls.

With the rapidly increasing number of intelligent multi-contact and
multi-user devices, the need to send digested, filtered information
from a set of different sources within the same device is imminent.
This patch adds the concept of slots to the MT protocol. The slots
enumerate a set of identified sources, such that all MT events
can be passed independently and selectively per identified source.

The protocol works like this: Instead of sending a SYN_MT_REPORT
event immediately after the contact data, one sends an ABS_MT_SLOT
event immediately before the contact data. The input core will only
emit events for slots with modified MT events. It is assumed that
the same slot is used for the duration of an initiated contact.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being

in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for

Sometimes it is desirable to suppress certain events from reaching
input handlers and thus user space. One such example is Mac mouse
button emulation code which catches certain key presses and converts
them into button clicks as if they were emitted by a virtual mouse.
The original key press events should be completely suppressed,
otherwise user space will be confused, and while keyboard driver
does it on its own evdev is blissfully unaware of this arrangement.

This patch adds notion of 'filter' to the standard input handlers,
which may flag event as filtered thus preventing it from reaching
other input handlers. Filters don't (nor will they ever) have a
notion of priority relative to each other, input core will run all
of them first and any one of them may mark event as filtered.

This patch is inspired by similar patch by Matthew Garret but the
implementation and intended usage are quite different.
