For keyboards, scroll events are reported by the kernel as EV_REL class events
of REL_WHEEL type. If, during probing, the device is found to support wheel
events, make sure it is set up as a pointing device, even if it doesn't have
buttons or doesn't report motion along the X and Y axis so that the scroll
events can be mapped to mouse wheel buttons (usually buttons 4 and 5).

We handle autorepeat in software due to per-key repeat and whatnot, so
disable the kernel's, which just interferes with ours.

Devices added that use the same min/maj as an already added device are ignored
by the driver. This way users can have an xorg.conf entry on
/dev/input/by-id/blahblah and not get the same device added by HAL.

Some devices require run-time axis calibration. We can't change the min/max
ranges once we've initialised the valuator structs though, so in-driver
run-time calibration is required.
If the property is set, the driver scales from the calibrated range to the
values reported to the X server (which then may scale to screen coordinates).
If the property is not set (i.e. zero items) no scaling is performed.
Three test devices provided:
btn0 .... Provides BTN_0, BTN_1, BTN_2 instead of BTN_LEFT, BTN_MIDDLE,
BTN_RIGHT.
abs ..... Provdes x/y absolute axes, jumps between 100/100 and 120/120.
absrel .. Provides relative x/y axes and absolute x/y axes at the same time.

Treat BTN_[0-2] as LMR buttons on devices that do not advertise BTN_LEFT,
BTN_MIDDLE, BTN_RIGHT (e.g. 3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator).
Otherwise, treat BTN_[0+n] as button 5+n. Note: This causes duplicate
mappings for BTN_0 + n and BTN_SIDE + n.
This also fixes a bug where we could end up with negative button numbers after
trying to map BTN_0.

This got broken in b0737bdbd1, when the
EmuMBPreInit call was removed from EvdevOn. As a result, VT switching away and
back wouldn't restore the wakeup handlers and mouse button presses
disappeared.
Touchscreens are devices that do not have buttons and only advertise
BTN_TOUCH. Add a new flag to note the device type.
If BTN_TOUCH is detected, change it to BTN_LEFT and process it normally.
We now have the matching code in the server to set the console to RAW mode and
don't need to grab the devices anymore.
This is an updated version of e8534d47c8, which
was reverted in 6dc4199155.
If we only have keys > 255 we don't set up a key class rec, so don't post
them. It makes the server unhappy.

Call the PreInit functions for MB Emulation, wheel emu, and draglock during
PreInit, not on DEVICE_INIT. This way, we only parse the options once and
don't overwrite with defaults when coming back from a VT switch.
This allows the reopen logic to kick in later.
DEVICE_CLOSE gets called on regen, so without this we'd keep a stale
file descriptor in pInfo->fd in subsequent sessions.
Debian bug#496101 (http://bugs.debian.org/496101)
Leaving the fd open means we still get keyboard events after VT switching
away. Coming back, some of these events are replayed on the application that
has the current focus.
Reproduceable:
1. open terminal, focus.
2. VT switch away
3. type something, preferably a password
4. VT switch back, trigger a mouse event
5. Observe the X server guessing your password.
Closing the fd on DEVICE_OFF fixes this. Reopen is handled by the reopen
code introduced with

Attempt to re-open devices on read errors.

This removes a left-over from the early device property code where we could
only have a single handler. Now it's easier to just register the handlers for
each subsystem (emulate wheel, draglock and MB emulation).
