Greg,

Please drop 4f73bc4dd3e8563ef4109f293a092820dff66d92, at least the parts
related to input. As far as I know nothing except serport driver
depends on tty and we do not need to introduce this kind of
dependencie. Anyone needing slim config can simply try disabling
input (or parts of it) without needing an artificial dependencies.

Thanks.
