Subject: [PATCH 0/4] input: evdev: Dynamic buffers (rev5)

Hi Dmitry,

Please find enclosed the fifth version of the evdev buffer patches.

In this version, the buffer scheme is left intact, leaving a single
patch to make the client buffers dynamic. Mostly harmless.

The rest of the patches are rebased versions of what has already been
sent, and summarizes what seems to be needed to fix the original
buffer problem. The last patch is a bonus which fixes an old bug.

Thanks,
Henrik
