virtio-input is basically evdev-events-over-virtio, so this driver isn't
much more than reading configuration from config space and forwarding
incoming events to the linux input layer.

Still a bit worried about using input.h as host/guest
interface (can't we use some formal standard, e.g. USB HID?),
but I'll let Rusty decide that.
I like the simplicity, and this API is pretty well proven.

Since this is under drivers/virtio rather than drivers/input, I've
applied it to my tree.

I have a dream where Denys Vlasenko adds this and the virtio gl device
to lguest, and we have X running under lguest :)

Applied!
Rusty.
