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.

Create input_inject_event() function which is to be used by input
handlers as opposed to input_event() which is reserved for drivers
implementing input devices. The difference is that if device is
"grabbed" by some process input_inject_event() will ignore events
unless sent from the handle that is currently owns the device.

This method used to enforce exclusive access to iforce devices,
but presenlty there are no known users of this method.

Pass the POSIX lock owner ID to the flush operation.
This is useful for filesystems which don't want to store any locking state
in inode->i_flock but want to handle locking/unlocking POSIX locks
internally. FUSE is one such filesystem but I think it possible that some
network filesystems would need this also.
Also add a flag to indicate that a POSIX locking request was generated by
close(), so filesystems using the above feature won't send an extra locking
request in this case.

While writing to an event device allows to set repeat rate for an
individual input device there is no way to retrieve current settings
so we need to ressurect EVIOCGREP. Also ressurect EVIOCSREP so we
have a symmetrical interface.

Sanitize some s390 Kconfig options. We have ARCH_S390, ARCH_S390X,
ARCH_S390_31, 64BIT, S390_SUPPORT and COMPAT. Replace these 6 options by
S390, 64BIT and COMPAT.

Compat and normal code mirror each other and are hard to maintain.
When EV_SW was added compat_ioctl case was missed. Here is my attempt
at consolidating the code.

This creates symlinks in /sys/class/input/ to the nested class devices
to help userspace cope with the nesting.
Unfortunatly udev still needs to be updated as it can't handle symlinks
properly here :(

The previous patch adding the ability to nest struct class_device
changed the paramaters to the call class_device_create(). This patch
fixes up all in-kernel users of the function.

Extend the compat mode kludgeology in envdev to cover MIPS as well.
Or why we should need something like is_compat_task() ...

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
