From: David Härdeman <david@hardeman.nu>

commit b2aceb739b5af6a8abc5ea6ab9e6a0409a3b5b1d upstream.

The call to input_register_device() needs to take place
before the repeat parameters are set or the input subsystem
repeat handling will be disabled (as was already noted in
the comments in that function).
