[RFC 2/2] input: evdev: Add EVIOC mechanism to extract the MT slot state

From: Benjamin Tissoires <hidden>
Date: 2011-01-27 10:36:01
Subsystem: input (keyboard, mouse, joystick, touchscreen) drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Dmitry Torokhov, Linus Torvalds

This patch adds the ability to extract the MT slot state sequentially
via EVIOCGABS. The slot parameter is first selected by calling
EVIOCSABS with ABS_MT_SLOT as argument, followed by a set of EVIOCGABS
calls. The slot selection is local to the evdev client handler, and
does not affect the actual input state.
