This reverts commit 37ef4c19b4.
The touchpad present in the Dell Precision 7550 and 7750 laptops
reports a HID_DG_BUTTONTYPE of type MT_BUTTONTYPE_CLICKPAD. However,
the device is not a clickpad, it is a touchpad with physical buttons.
In order to fix this issue, a quirk for the device was introduced in
libinput [1] [2] to disable the INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD property:
[Precision 7x50 Touchpad]
MatchBus=i2c
MatchUdevType=touchpad
MatchDMIModalias=dmi:*svnDellInc.:pnPrecision7?50*
AttrInputPropDisable=INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD
However, because of the change introduced in 37ef4c19b4 ("Input: clear
BTN_RIGHT/MIDDLE on buttonpads") the BTN_RIGHT key bit is not mapped
anymore breaking the device right click button and making impossible to
workaround it in user space.
In order to avoid breakage on other present or future devices, revert
the patch causing the issue.

The input core's error handling for input_alloc_absinfo() failures
is based on ignoring the error until input_register_device() runs
and then checks for the failure like this:
if (test_bit(EV_ABS, dev->evbit) && !dev->absinfo) {
dev_err(&dev->dev, ...);
return -EINVAL;
}
This relies on EV_ABS actually getting set in dev->evbit even
if input_alloc_absinfo() fails, change input_set_abs_params() and
input_set_capability() to actually adhere to this.

Buttonpads are expected to map the INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD property bit
and the BTN_LEFT key bit.
As explained in the specification, where a device has a button type
value of 0 (click-pad) or 1 (pressure-pad) there should not be
discrete buttons:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/component-guidelines/touchpad-windows-precision-touchpad-collection#device-capabilities-feature-report
However, some drivers map the BTN_RIGHT and/or BTN_MIDDLE key bits even
though the device is a buttonpad and therefore does not have those
buttons.
This behavior has forced userspace applications like libinput to
implement different workarounds and quirks to detect buttonpads and
offer to the user the right set of features and configuration options.
For more information:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/-/merge_requests/726
In order to avoid this issue clear the BTN_RIGHT and BTN_MIDDLE key
bits when the input device is register if the INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD
property bit is set.
Notice that this change will not affect udev because it does not check
for buttons. See systemd/src/udev/udev-builtin-input_id.c.

Userspace might want to implement a policy to temporarily disregard input
from certain devices, including not treating them as wakeup sources.
An example use case is a laptop, whose keyboard can be folded under the
screen to create tablet-like experience. The user then must hold the laptop
in such a way that it is difficult to avoid pressing the keyboard keys. It
is therefore desirable to temporarily disregard input from the keyboard,
until it is folded back. This obviously is a policy which should be kept
out of the kernel, but the kernel must provide suitable means to implement
such a policy.
This patch adds a sysfs interface for exactly this purpose.
To implement the said interface it adds an "inhibited" property to struct
input_dev, and effectively creates four states a device can be in: closed
uninhibited, closed inhibited, open uninhibited, open inhibited. It also
defers calling driver's ->open() and ->close() to until they are actually
needed, e.g. it makes no sense to prepare the underlying device for
generating events (->open()) if the device is inhibited.
uninhibit
closed <------------ closed
uninhibited ------------> inhibited
| ^ inhibit | ^
1st | | 1st | |
open | | open | |
| | | |
| | last | | last
| | close | | close
v | uninhibit v |
open <------------ open
uninhibited ------------> inhibited
The top inhibit/uninhibit transition happens when users == 0.
The bottom inhibit/uninhibit transition happens when users > 0.
The left open/close transition happens when !inhibited.
The right open/close transition happens when inhibited.
Due to all transitions being serialized with dev->mutex, it is impossible
to have "diagonal" transitions between closed uninhibited and open
inhibited or between open uninhibited and closed inhibited.
No new callbacks are added to drivers, because their open() and close()
serve exactly the purpose to tell the driver to start/stop providing
events to the input core. Consequently, open() and close() - if provided
- are called in both inhibit and uninhibit paths.

Separating "normal" and "polled" input devices was a mistake, as often we
want to allow the very same device work on both interrupt-driven and
polled mode, depending on the board on which the device is used.
This introduces new APIs:
- input_setup_polling
- input_set_poll_interval
- input_set_min_poll_interval
- input_set_max_poll_interval
These new APIs allow switching an input device into polled mode with sysfs
attributes matching drivers using input_polled_dev APIs that will be
eventually removed.

Currently, evdev stamps events with timestamps acquired in evdev_events()
However, this timestamping may not be accurate in terms of measuring
when the actual event happened.
Let's allow individual drivers specify timestamp in order to provide a more
accurate sense of time for the event. It is expected that drivers will set the
timestamp in their hard interrupt routine.

Some of fuzzers set panic_on_warn=1 so that they can handle WARN()ings
the same way they handle full-blown kernel crashes. We used WARN() in
input_alloc_absinfo() to get a better idea where memory allocation
failed, but since then kmalloc() and friends started dumping call stack on
memory allocation failures anyway, so we are not getting anything extra
from WARN().
Because of the above, let's replace WARN with dev_err(). We use dev_err()
instead of simply removing message and relying on kcalloc() to give us
stack dump so that we'd know the instance of hardware device to which we
were trying to attach input device.

for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done
with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
