[PATCH v4 1/2] xen/kbdif: Add string constants for raw pointer

[Oleksandr Andrushchenko]

From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@epam.com>

Add missing string constants for {feature|request}-raw-pointer
to align with the rest of the interface file.

Fixes 7868654ff7fe ("kbdif: Define "feature-raw-pointer" and "request-raw-pointer")

[PATCH v4 2/2] xen/kbdif: Add features to disable keyboard and pointer

[Oleksandr Andrushchenko]

From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@epam.com>

It is now not fully possible to control if and which virtual devices
are created by the frontend, e.g. keyboard and pointer devices
are always created and multi-touch device is created if the
backend advertises multi-touch support. In some cases this
behavior is not desirable and better control over the frontend's
configuration is required.

Add new XenStore feature fields, so it is possible to individually
control set of exposed virtual devices for each guest OS:
 - set feature-disable-keyboard to 1 if no keyboard device needs
   to be created
 - set feature-disable-pointer to 1 if no pointer device needs
   to be created

Keep old behavior by default.

Is this ack for both patches or this one only?
I see Konrad has applied this patch, but
"[Xen-devel][PATCH v4 2/2] xen/kbdif: Add features to disable keyboard

It was meant for patch 1 only.

In principle I'm fine with taking it for 4.11, but I think at this stage
of the release there should be a formal request to include it.

...and the request should come from Konrad?
Or who else may request that?

And, as I have r-b's from Konrad for both patches,
will it be ok if we apply the corresponding changes to the
kernel now, so my change to xen-kbdfront is unblocked?

Normally the sender of the patch would make this request below the ---
of the commit message, e.g.:
  ---
  This patch should go into 4.11 as it is needed for a related Linux
  kernel patch and the risk is next to zero for Xen due to only adding
  some macros not in use on Xen side.

The request can be made by anyone, of course, e.g. by replying to the
patch mail and including the release manager as a recipient.

No, please don't do that.

Hi, Juergen!

This patch should go into 4.11 as it is needed for a related Linux
kernel patch and the risk is next to zero for Xen due to only adding
some macros not in use on Xen side.

Could you please release ack this and apply?

Thank you,
