Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] Input: add `SW_MACHINE_COVER`

Hi,

Looks like we're blocking on this input patch.

This is part of a patch series to resolve problems with the Nokia N900
not booting when the cover is removed (making the cover be the card
detect was also just weird IMHO). Just removing the card-detect from the
DTS is fine, but it was suggested that we expose the data instead as
input event. And that's gotten no response for about four months.

Should we just drop the feature and only remove the cd-gpios line from
the DTS, assuming upstream doesn't want this SW_MACHINE_COVER code?
