Pull input fixes from Dmitry Torokhov:
 "Updates for the input subsystem.

  The main change is that we tell joydev not to touch "absolute mice",
  such as VMware virtual mouse, as that produced bad result (cursor
  stuck in upper right corner) with games"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dtor/input:
  Input: smtpe-ts - wait 50mS until polling for pen-up
  Input: smtpe-ts - use msecs_to_jiffies() instead of HZ
  Input: joydev - don't classify the vmmouse as a joystick
  Input: vmmouse - do not reference non-existing version of X driver
  Input: alps - fix finger jumps on lifting 2 fingers on v7 touchpad
  Input: elantech - fix semi-mt protocol for v3 HW
  Input: sx8654 - fix memory allocation check

Wait a little bit longer, 50mS instead of 20mS, until the driver starts
polling for pen-up. The problematic behavior before this patch is applied
is as follows. The behavior was observed on the STMPE610QTR controller.

Upon a physical pen-down event, the touchscreen reports one set of x-y-p
coordinates and a pen-down event. After that, the pen-up polling is
triggered and since the controller is not ready yet, the polling mistakenly
detects a pen-up event while the physical state is still such that the pen
is down on the touch surface.

The pen-up handling flushes the controller FIFO, so after that, all the
samples in the controller are discarded. The controller becomes ready
shortly after this bogus pen-up handling and does generate again a pen-down
interrupt. This time, the controller contains x-y-p samples which all read
as zero. Since pressure value is zero, this set of samples is effectively
ignored by userland.

In the end, the driver just bounces between pen-down and bogus pen-up
handling, generating no useful results. Fix this by giving the controller a
bit more time before polling it for pen-up.

Use msecs_to_jiffies(20) instead of plain (HZ / 50), as the former is much
more explicit about it's behavior. We want to schedule the task 20 mS from
now, so make it explicit in the code.

Joydev is currently thinking some absolute mice are joystick, and that
messes up games in VMware guests, as the cursor typically gets stuck in
the top left corner.

Try to detect the event signature of a VMmouse input device and back off
for such devices. We're still incorrectly detecting, for example, the
VMware absolute USB mouse as a joystick, but adding an event signature
matching also that device would be considerably more risky, so defer that
to a later merge window.

On v7 touchpads sometimes when 2 fingers are moved down on the touchpad
until they "fall of" the touchpad, the second touch will report 0 for y
(max y really since the y axis is inverted) and max x as coordinates,
rather then reporting 0, 0 as is expected for a non touching finger.

This commit detects this and treats these touches as non touching.

<title>Input: elantech - fix semi-mt protocol for v3 HW</title>

<content type='text'>
When the v3 hardware sees more than one finger, it uses the semi-mt
protocol to report the touches. However, it currently works when
num_fingers is 0, 1 or 2, but when it is 3 and above, it sends only 1
finger as if num_fingers was 1.

This confuses userspace which knows how to deal with extra fingers
when all the slots are used, but not when some are missing.

 "Here's a set of updates to the Chrome OS platform drivers for this
  merge window.

  Main new things this cycle is:

   - Driver changes to expose the lightbar to users.  With this, you can
     make your own blinkenlights on Chromebook Pixels.

   - Changes in the way that the atmel_mxt trackpads are probed.  The
     laptop driver is trying to be smart and not instantiate the devices
     that don't answer to probe.  For the trackpad that can come up in
     two modes (bootloader or regular), this gets complicated since the
     driver already knows how to handle the two modes including the
     actual addresses used.  So now the laptop driver needs to know more
     too, instantiating the regular address even if the bootloader one
     is the probe that passed.

   - mfd driver improvements by Javier Martines Canillas, and a few
     bugfixes from him, kbuild and myself"
