With the rapidly increasing number of intelligent multi-contact and
multi-user devices, the need to send digested, filtered information
from a set of different sources within the same device is imminent.
This patch adds the concept of slots to the MT protocol. The slots
enumerate a set of identified sources, such that all MT events
can be passed independently and selectively per identified source.
The protocol works like this: Instead of sending a SYN_MT_REPORT
event immediately after the contact data, one sends an ABS_MT_SLOT
event immediately before the contact data. The input core will only
emit events for slots with modified MT events. It is assumed that
the same slot is used for the duration of an initiated contact.

When the client buffer is very small and wraps around a lot, it may
well be that a write increases the head such that head == tail. If
this happens between the point where a poll is triggered and the
actual data is being read, there will be no data to read. This is
confusing to applications, which might end up closing the file.
This patch solves the problem by making sure the client buffer is
never empty after writing to it.

Some devices, in particular MT devices, produce a lot of data. This
may lead to overflowing of the event queues in evdev driver, which
by default are fairly small. Let the drivers hint the average number
of events per packet generated by the device, and use that information
when computing the buffer size evdev should use for the device.

When using realtime signals, we'll enqueue one signal for every event.
This is unfortunate, because (for example) keyboard presses are three
events: key, msc scancode, and syn. They'll be enqueued fast enough in
kernel space that all three events will be ready to read by the time
userspace runs, so the first invocation of the signal handler will read
all three events, but then the second two invocations still have to run
to do no work.
Instead, only send the SIGIO notification on syn events. This is a
slight abuse of SIGIO semantics, in principle it ought to fire as soon
as any events are readable. But it matches evdev semantics, which is
more important since SIGIO is rather vaguely defined to begin with.

Commit 3d5cb60e ("Input: simplify name handling for certain input
handles") introduced a regression for the EVIOCGNAME/JSIOCGNAME
ioctl.
Before this, patch, the platform device's name was given back to
userspace which was good to identify devices. After this patch, the
device is ("event%d", minor) which is not descriptive at all.
This fixes the behaviour by taking dev->name.

Most fasync implementations do something like:
return fasync_helper(...);
But fasync_helper() will return a positive value at times - a feature used
in at least one place. Thus, a number of other drivers do:
err = fasync_helper(...);
if (err < 0)
return err;
return 0;
In the interests of consistency and more concise code, it makes sense to
map positive return values onto zero where ->fasync() is called.

As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.
So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set. And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

Input: reduce raciness when input handlers disconnect

There is a race between input handler's release() and disconnect()
methods: when input handler disconnects it wakes up all regular
users and then process to walk user list to wake up async. users.
While disconnect() walks the list release() removes elements of
the same list causing oopses.
While this is not a substibute for proper locking we can reduce
odds of getting an oops if we wake up normal readers after walking
the list.

Implement a new force feedback interface, in which all non-driver-specific
operations are separated to a common module. This includes handling effect
type validations, locking, etc.
The effects are now file descriptor specific instead of the previous strange
half-process half-fd specific behaviour. The effect memory of devices is not
emptied if the root user opens and closes the device while another user is
using effects. This is a minor change and most likely no force feedback
aware programs are affected by this negatively.
Otherwise the userspace interface is left unaltered.
