Are you sure that using sysfs is the correct way here?
I would think using generic properties that can be overwritten by the
DSDT or by the device tree would make things easier from a driver
point of view.

Also, checkpatch complains about a few octal permissions that are
preferred over symbolic ones, and there is a possible 'out of memory'
nessage at drivers/input/input-poller.c:75.

Cheers,
Benjamin
