      HID: fixup the conflicting keyboard mappings quirk · 24cc9001

      commit 8e7b3410 upstream.
      
      The ignore check that got added in 6ce901eb ("HID: input: fix confusion
      on conflicting mappings") needs to properly check for VARIABLE reports
      as well (ARRAY reports should be ignored), otherwise legitimate keyboards
      might break.

      HID: input: fix confusion on conflicting mappings · 0738e7b9

      commit 6ce901eb upstream.
      
      On an PC-101/103/104 keyboard (American layout) the 'Enter' key and its
      neighbours look like this:
      
                 +---+ +---+ +-------+
                 | 1 | | 2 | |   5   |
                 +---+ +---+ +-------+
                   +---+ +-----------+
                   | 3 | |     4     |
                   +---+ +-----------+
      
      On a PC-102/105 keyboard (European layout) it looks like this:
      
                 +---+ +---+ +-------+
                 | 1 | | 2 | |       |
                 +---+ +---+ +-+  4  |
                   +---+ +---+ |     |
                   | 3 | | 5 | |     |
                   +---+ +---+ +-----+
      
      (Note that the number of keys is the same, but key '5' is moved down and
       the shape of key '4' is changed. Keys '1' to '3' are exactly the same.)
      
      The keys 1-4 report the same scan-code in HID in both layouts, even though
      the keysym they produce is usually different depending on the XKB-keymap
      used by user-space.
      However, key '5' (US 'backslash'/'pipe') reports 0x31 for the upper layout
      and 0x32 for the lower layout, as defined by the HID spec. This is highly
      confusing as the linux-input API uses a single keycode for both.
      
      So far, this was never a problem as there never has been a keyboard with
      both of those keys present at the same time. It would have to look
      something like this:
      
                 +---+ +---+ +-------+
                 | 1 | | 2 | |  x31  |
                 +---+ +---+ +-------+
                   +---+ +---+ +-----+
                   | 3 | |x32| |  4  |
                   +---+ +---+ +-----+
      
      HID can represent such a keyboard, but the linux-input API cannot.
      Furthermore, any user-space mapping would be confused by this and,
      luckily, no-one ever produced such hardware.
      
      Now, the HID input layer fixed this mess by mapping both 0x31 and 0x32 to
      the same keycode (KEY_BACKSLASH==0x2b). As only one of both physical keys
      is present on a hardware, this works just fine.
      
      Lets introduce hardware-vendors into this:
      ------------------------------------------
      
      Unfortunately, it seems way to expensive to produce a different device for
      American and European layouts. Therefore, hardware-vendors put both keys,
      (0x31 and 0x32) on the same keyboard, but only one of them is hooked up
      to the physical button, the other one is 'dead'.
      This means, they can use the same hardware, with a different button-layout
      and automatically produce the correct HID events for American *and*
      European layouts. This is unproblematic for normal keyboards, as the
      'dead' key will never report any KEY-DOWN events. But RollOver keyboards
      send the whole matrix on each key-event, allowing n-key roll-over mode.
      This means, we get a 0x31 and 0x32 event on each key-press. One of them
      will always be 0, the other reports the real state. As we map both to the
      same keycode, we will get spurious key-events, even though the real
      key-state never changed.
      
      The easiest way would be to blacklist 'dead' keys and never handle those.
      We could simply read the 'country' tag of USB devices and blacklist either
      key according to the layout. But... hardware vendors... want the same
      device for all countries and thus many of them set 'country' to 0 for all
      devices. Meh..
      
      So we have to deal with this properly. As we cannot know which of the keys
      is 'dead', we either need a heuristic and track those keys, or we simply
      make use of our value-tracking for HID fields. We simply ignore HID events
      for absolute data if the data didn't change. As HID tracks events on the
      HID level, we haven't done the keycode translation, yet. Therefore, the
      'dead' key is tracked independently of the real key, therefore, any events
      on it will be ignored.
      
      This patch simply discards any HID events for absolute data if it didn't
      change compared to the last report. We need to ignore relative and
      buffered-byte reports for obvious reasons. But those cannot be affected by
      this bug, so we're fine.
      
      Preferably, we'd do this filtering on the HID-core level. But this might
      break a lot of custom drivers, if they do not follow the HID specs.
      Therefore, we do this late in hid-input just before we inject it into the
      input layer (which does the exact same filtering, but on the keycode
      level).
      
      If this turns out to break some devices, we might have to limit filtering
      to EV_KEY events. But lets try to do the Right Thing first, and properly
      filter any absolute data that didn't change.
      
      This patch is tagged for 'stable' as it fixes a lot of n-key RollOver
      hardware. We might wanna wait with backporting for a while, before we know
      it doesn't break anything else, though.

      hx4700: regulator: declare full constraints · cb2ba5e7
      Martin Vajnar authored
      commit a52d2093 upstream.
      
      Since the removal of CONFIG_REGULATOR_DUMMY option, the touchscreen stopped
      working. This patch enables the "replacement" for REGULATOR_DUMMY and
      allows the touchscreen to work even though there is no regulator for "vcc".

      ARM: pxa: add regulator_has_full_constraints to spitz board file · 8d472b84
      Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov authored
      commit baad2dc4 upstream.
      
      Add regulator_has_full_constraints() call to spitz board file to let
      regulator core know that we do not have any additional regulators left.
      This lets it substitute unprovided regulators with dummy ones.
      
      This fixes the following warnings that can be seen on spitz if
      regulators are enabled:
