Pull hw lockdown support from David Howells:
 "Annotation of module parameters that configure hardware resources
  including ioports, iomem addresses, irq lines and dma channels.

  This allows a future patch to prohibit the use of such module
  parameters to prevent that hardware from being abused to gain access
  to the running kernel image as part of locking the kernel down under
  UEFI secure boot conditions.

  Annotations are made by changing:

        module_param(n, t, p)
        module_param_named(n, v, t, p)
        module_param_array(n, t, m, p)

  to:

        module_param_hw(n, t, hwtype, p)
        module_param_hw_named(n, v, t, hwtype, p)
        module_param_hw_array(n, t, hwtype, m, p)

  where the module parameter refers to a hardware setting

  hwtype specifies the type of the resource being configured. This can
  be one of:

        ioport          Module parameter configures an I/O port
        iomem           Module parameter configures an I/O mem address
        ioport_or_iomem Module parameter could be either (runtime set)
        irq             Module parameter configures an I/O port
        dma             Module parameter configures a DMA channel
        dma_addr        Module parameter configures a DMA buffer address
        other           Module parameter configures some other value

  Note that the hwtype is compile checked, but not currently stored (the
  lockdown code probably won't require it). It is, however, there for
  future use.

  A bonus is that the hwtype can also be used for grepping.

  The intention is for the kernel to ignore or reject attempts to set
  annotated module parameters if lockdown is enabled. This applies to
  options passed on the boot command line, passed to insmod/modprobe or
  direct twiddling in /sys/module/ parameter files.

  The module initialisation then needs to handle the parameter not being
  set, by (1) giving an error, (2) probing for a value or (3) using a
  reasonable default.

  What I can't do is just reject a module out of hand because it may
  take a hardware setting in the module parameters. Some important
  modules, some ipmi stuff for instance, both probe for hardware and
  allow hardware to be manually specified; if the driver is aborts with
  any error, you don't get any ipmi hardware.

  Further, trying to do this entirely in the module initialisation code
  doesn't protect against sysfs twiddling.

  [!] Note that in and of itself, this series of patches should have no
      effect on the the size of the kernel or code execution - that is
      left to a patch in the next series to effect. It does mark
      annotated kernel parameters with a KERNEL_PARAM_FL_HWPARAM flag in
      an already existing field"

Pull input subsystem updates from Dmitry Torokhov:

 - a big update from Mauro converting input documentation to ReST format

 - Synaptics PS/2 is now aware of SMBus companion devices, which means
   that we can now use native RMI4 protocol to handle touchpads, instead
   of relying on legacy PS/2 mode.

 - we removed support from BMA180 accelerometer from input devices as it
   is now handled properly by IIO

 - update to TSC2007 to corretcly report pressure

 - other miscellaneous driver fixes.

The device could as well be in command mode, in which this driver cannot
handle the device. When opening the device, let's make sure the device
will be in the mode we expect it to be for this driver.

These tests are meaningless as is because "adapt" can't possibly be both

When the kernel is running in secure boot mode, we lock down the kernel to
prevent userspace from modifying the running kernel image.  Whilst this
includes prohibiting access to things like /dev/mem, it must also prevent
access by means of configuring driver modules in such a way as to cause a
device to access or modify the kernel image.

To this end, annotate module_param* statements that refer to hardware
configuration and indicate for future reference what type of parameter they
specify.  The parameter parser in the core sees this information and can
skip such parameters with an error message if the kernel is locked down.
The module initialisation then runs as normal, but just sees whatever the
default values for those parameters is.

Note that we do still need to do the module initialisation because some
drivers have viable defaults set in case parameters aren't specified and
some drivers support automatic configuration (e.g. PNP or PCI) in addition
to manually coded parameters.

This patch annotates drivers in drivers/input/.

ar1021_i2c also supports the ar1020 device I'm using. This is tested.
They also share the same datasheet:

   http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/40001393C.pdf

So let users see that they have a compatible in front of them by adding
AR1020 to the driver's description.

We should not be forcing edge triggered interrupt, but rather let platform
decide the kind of trigger it needs to use. Also, the driver is not quite
safe with regard to edge-triggered interrupts as it does not try to kick
the controller after requesting/enabling IRQ.

The name field in structure i2c_device_id is 20 characters, and we expect
it to be NULL-terminated, however we are trying to stuff it with 21 bytes
and thus NULL-terminator is lost. This causes issues when one creates
device with name "MICROCHIP_AR1021_I2C" as i2c core cuts off the last "C",
and automatic module loading by alias does not work as result.

The -I2C suffix in the device name is superfluous, we know what bus we are
dealing with, so let's drop it. Also, no other driver uses capitals, and
the manufacturer name is normally not included, except in very rare cases
of incompatible name collisions.
