There is no point in queueing EV_SYN/SYN_DROPPED on clock type change when
there are no events in the client's queue and doing so confuses tests in
libinput package, so let's not do that.

When client changes the type of clock used for the time stamps in input
events flush pending events from the client's queue (since client would not
know which events have old time stamps and which ones have new ones) and
and queue SYN_DROPPED event.

Pull input layer fixes from Dmitry Torokhov:
"Fixes for v7 protocol for ALPS devices and few other driver fixes.
Also users can request input events to be stamped with boot time
timestamps, in addition to real and monotonic timestamps"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dtor/input:
Input: hil_kbd - fix incorrect use of init_completion
Input: alps - v7: document the v7 touchpad packet protocol
Input: alps - v7: fix finger counting for > 2 fingers on clickpads
Input: alps - v7: sometimes a single touch is reported in mt[1]
Input: alps - v7: ignore new packets
Input: evdev - add CLOCK_BOOTTIME support
Input: psmouse - expose drift duration for IBM trackpoints
Input: stmpe - bias keypad columns properly
Input: stmpe - enforce device tree only mode
mfd: stmpe: add pull up/down register offsets for STMPE
Input: optimize events_per_packet count calculation
Input: edt-ft5x06 - fixed a macro coding style issue
Input: gpio_keys - replace timer and workqueue with delayed workqueue
Input: gpio_keys - allow separating gpio and irq in device tree
This patch adds support for CLOCK_BOOTTIME for input event timestamp.
CLOCK_BOOTTIME includes suspend time, so it would allow aplications
to get correct time difference between two events even when system
resumes from suspend state.

The 'max' size passed into the function is measured in number of bits
(KEY_MAX, LED_MAX, etc) so we need to convert it accordingly before trying
to copy the data out, otherwise we will try copying too much and end up
with up with a page fault.

Convert the monotonic timestamp with ktime_mono_to_real() in
evdev_events().
In evdev_queue_syn_dropped() we can call either ktime_get() or
ktime_get_real() depending on the clkid. No point in having two calls
for CLOCK_REALTIME.

If a new (id == -1) ff effect was uploaded from userspace,
ff-core.c::input_ff_upload() will have assigned a positive number to the
new effect id. Currently, evdev.c::evdev_do_ioctl() will save this new id
to userspace, regardless of whether the upload succeeded or not.
On upload failure, this can be confusing because the dev->ff->effects[]
array will not contain an element at the index of that new effect id.
This patch fixes this by leaving the id unchanged after upload fails.
Note: Unfortunately applications should still expect changed effect id for
quite some time.
This has been discussed on:

evdev always tries to allocate the event buffer for clients using
kzalloc rather than vmalloc, presumably to avoid mapping overhead where
possible. However, drivers like bcm5974, which claims support for
reporting 16 fingers simultaneously, can have an extraordinarily large
buffer. The resultant contiguous order-4 allocation attempt fails due
to fragmentation, and the device is thus unusable until reboot.
Try kzalloc if we can to avoid the mapping overhead, but if that fails,
fall back to vzalloc.

If we have multiple sessions on a system, we normally don't want
background sessions to read input events. Otherwise, it could capture
passwords and more entered by the user on the foreground session. This is
a real world problem as the recent XMir development showed:
http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/27327.html
We currently rely on sessions to release input devices when being
deactivated. This relies on trust across sessions. But that's not given on
usual systems. We therefore need a way to control which processes have
access to input devices.
With VTs the kernel simply routed them through the active /dev/ttyX. This
is not possible with evdev devices, though. Moreover, we want to avoid
routing input-devices through some dispatcher-daemon in userspace (which
would add some latency).
This patch introduces EVIOCREVOKE. If called on an evdev fd, this revokes
device-access irrecoverably for that *single* open-file. Hence, once you
call EVIOCREVOKE on any dup()ed fd, all fds for that open-file will be
rather useless now (but still valid compared to close()!). This allows us
to pass fds directly to session-processes from a trusted source. The
source keeps a dup()ed fd and revokes access once the session-process is
no longer active.
Compared to the EVIOCMUTE proposal, we can avoid the CAP_SYS_ADMIN
restriction now as there is no way to revive the fd again. Hence, a user
is free to call EVIOCREVOKE themself to kill the fd.
Additionally, this ioctl allows multi-layer access-control (again compared
to EVIOCMUTE which was limited to one layer via CAP_SYS_ADMIN). A middle
layer can simply request a new open-file from the layer above and pass it
to the layer below. Now each layer can call EVIOCREVOKE on the fds to
revoke access for all layers below, at the expense of one fd per layer.
There's already ongoing experimental user-space work which demonstrates
how it can be used:

If userspace requests current KEY-state, they very likely assume that no
such events are pending in the output queue of the evdev device.
Otherwise, they will parse events which they already handled via
EVIOCGKEY(). For XKB applications this can cause irreversible keyboard
states if a modifier is locked multiple times because a CTRL-DOWN event is
handled once via EVIOCGKEY() and once from the queue via read(), even
though it should handle it only once.
Therefore, lets do the only logical thing and flush the evdev queue
atomically during this ioctl. We only flush events that are affected by
the given ioctl.
This only affects boolean events like KEY, SND, SW and LED. ABS, REL and
others are not affected as duplicate events can be handled gracefully by
user-space.
Note: This actually breaks semantics of the evdev ABI. However,
investigations showed that userspace already expects the new semantics and
we end up fixing at least all XKB applications.
All applications that are aware of this race-condition mirror the KEY
state for each open-file and detect/drop duplicate events. Hence, they do
not care whether duplicates are posted or not and work fine with this fix.
Also note that we need proper locking to guarantee atomicity and avoid
dead-locks. event_lock must be locked before queue_lock (see input-core).
However, we can safely release event_lock while flushing the queue. This
allows the input-core to proceed with pending events and only stop if it
needs our queue_lock to post new events.
This should guarantee that we don't block event-dispatching for too long
while flushing a single event queue.

Commit 7f8d4cad1e ("Input: extend the number of event (and other)
devices") made evdev, joydev and mousedev to embed struct cdev into
their respective structures representing input devices.
Unfortunately character device structure may outlive the parent
structure unless we do not set it up as parent of character device so
that it will stay pinned until character device is freed.
Also, now that parent structure is pinned while character device exists
we do not need to pin and unpin it every time user opens or closes it.

Extend the amount of character devices, such as eventX, mouseX and jsX,
from a hard limit of 32 per input handler to about 1024 shared across
all handlers.
To be compatible with legacy installations input handlers will start
creating char devices with minors in their legacy range, however once
legacy range is exhausted they will start allocating minors from the
dynamic range 256-1024.

According to the standard count 0 is special - no IO should happen but we
can check error conditions (device gone away, etc), and return 0 if there
