Subject: [PATCH] Input: introduce device information ioctl
Today, userspace sets up an input device based on the data it emits.
This is not always enough; a tablet and a touchscreen may emit exactly
the same data, for instance, but the former should be set up with a
pointer whereas the latter does not need to. Recently, a new type of
touchpad has emerged where the buttons are under the pad, which
changes handling logic without changing the emitted data. This patch
introduces a new ioctl, EVIOCGPROP, which enables user access to a set
of device properties useful during setup. The properties are given as
a bitmap in the same fashion as the event types, and are also made
available via sysfs.
