Subject: [050/143] Input: elantech - do not advertise relative events

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@...il.com>

commit c7a1f3ccfc2f99427f2e1545b3171e98539c3c95 upstream.

Elantech touchpads work in absolute mode and do not generate relative
events so they should not be advertising them.
