[PATCH v2 1/2] Input: uinput - add UI_GET_VERSION ioctl

[David Herrmann]

This ioctl is the counterpart to EVIOCGVERSION and returns the
uinput-version the kernel was compiled with.

[PATCH v2 2/2] Input: uinput - add new UINPUT_DEV_SETUP ioctl

[David Herrmann]

This adds a new ioctl UINPUT_DEV_SETUP that replaces the old device setup
method (by write()'ing "struct uinput_user_dev" to the node). The old
method is not easily extendable and requires huge payloads. Furthermore,
overloading write() without properly versioned objects is error-prone.

Therefore, we introduce a new ioctl to replace the old method. The ioctl
supports all features of the old method, plus a "resolution" field for
absinfo. Furthermore, it's properly forward-compatible to new ABS codes
and a growing "struct input_absinfo" structure.

The ioctl also allows user-space to skip unknown axes if not set. The
payload-size can now be specified by the caller. There is no need to copy
the whole array temporarily into the kernel, but instead we can iterate
over it and copy each value manually.

v2:
 - drop "version" field
 - drop "size" field
 - only copy absinfo if UI_SET_ABSBIT was called for the axis
 - minor linguistic changes

don't you want to a check for udev->state != UIST_CREATED here?

hm, I think you misunderstood my comment. I was hoping to fix all up in one
go, I had noticed that the others were 0.x as well :)
