[PATCH 4/4] input: evdev: only wake poll on EV_SYN

[Jeff Brown <jeffbrown@android.com>]

On SMP systems, it is possible for an evdev client blocked on poll()
to wake up and read events from the evdev ring buffer at the same
rate as they are enqueued.  This can result in high CPU usage,
particularly for MT devices, because the client ends up reading
events one at a time instead of reading complete packets.  This patch
ensures that the client only wakes from poll() when a complete packet
is ready to be read.
