There are a few multi-touch devices that support finger tracking
well in hardware, Stantum being the prime example. By exposing the
tracking ID in the MT protocol, evdev bandwidth and cpu usage in
user space can be reduced.
This patch adds the ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID to the MT protocol.

In order to utilize the full power of the new multi-touch devices, a
way to report detailed finger data to user space is needed. This patch
adds a multi-touch (MT) protocol which allows drivers to report details
for an arbitrary number of fingers.
The driver sends a SYN_MT_REPORT event via the input_mt_sync() function
when a complete finger has been reported.
In order to stay compatible with existing applications, the data
reported in a finger packet must not be recognized as single-touch
events. In addition, all finger data must bypass input filtering,
since subsequent events of the same type refer to different fingers.
A set of ABS_MT events with the desired properties are defined. The
events are divided into categories, to allow for partial implementation.
The minimum set consists of ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR, ABS_MT_POSITION_X and
ABS_MT_POSITION_Y, which allows for multiple fingers to be tracked.
If the device supports it, the ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR may be used to provide
the size of the approaching finger. Anisotropy and direction may be
specified with ABS_MT_TOUCH_MINOR, ABS_MT_WIDTH_MINOR and
ABS_MT_ORIENTATION. Devices with more granular information may specify
general shapes as blobs, i.e., as a sequence of rectangular shapes
grouped together by a ABS_MT_BLOB_ID. Finally, the ABS_MT_TOOL_TYPE
may be used to specify whether the touching tool is a finger or a pen.

With the upcoming multi-touch interface as an example, there is
a need to make certain that all reported events actually get passed
to the event handler. This patch equips the input core with the
ability to bypass all filtering for certain EV_ABS events.

There is no need to issue serialize_rcu() after adding a new handle
to the list of handles associated with the device because new events
will "see" the new handle in the list immediately. Remove it so we
can boot a little bit faster.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

Whenever you press and then release a key, the CPU wakes up
three times:
* press
* release
* autorepeat timer exactly 250ms after press
The autorepeat timer has nothing to do, obviously, since you already
have released the key, so stop it on key release.
[dtor@mail.ru: This changes autorepeat behavior a bit since we now stop
autorepeat even if key that is being released is not the one that is
being auto-repeated, but I believe the new behavior is better.]

Remove proc_bus export and variable itself. Using pathnames works fine

input_handle_event() used to pass EV_PWR events to event handlers
but no longer does so in 2.6.23. Modules to trigger power management
events based on input power events exist but rely on the EV_PWR events
being passed to the input event handlers.

RT guys alerted me to the fact that in their tree spinlocks
are preemptible and it is better to use full RCU API
(rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock()) to be safe.

This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.
Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the
error handling.
