Subject: [PATCH v2] psmouse: mitigate failing-mouse symptoms
Keep a failing PS/2 mouse usable until it's convenient to replace it.
Filter incoming packets: drop invalid ones and attempt to correct for
dropped bytes.
New parameter 'filter' makes filtering and logging selectable, set to 0
to shut off all effects.
Tested on AMD64, full coverage. No one else has tried this yet.

This is a second version, choosier about accepting apparently-valid
start bytes, no redundant test and more concise syslog and changelog
text.
This is my first patch, I hope I got the procedures right, apologies in
advance if I goofed something.
My mouse failed while in XP, but I didn't know it - it seemed it'd need
cleaning soon. On booting into Linux, it was dangerous, wild slews and
random clicks. The difference was consistent, making it seem the
problem wasn't the mouse.
Jim
