Linus Torvalds d6a24d0640 The documentation tree update for 4.1. Numerous fixes, the overdue removal
of the i2o docs, some new Chinese translations, and, hopefully, the README
 fix that will end the flow of identical patches to that file.

Peter Hutterer 3309677751 Input: define INPUT_PROP_ACCELEROMETER behavior
Spell out what this property means to userspace. If the property is set, all
directional axes must be accelerometer axes, any other axes are left as-is.
This allows an accelerometer device to e.g. have an ABS_WHEEL.

It is not permitted to mix normal directional axes and accelerometer axes on
the same device node.

Benjamin Tissoires af8036dd74 Input: introduce EV_MSC Timestamp
Some devices provides the actual timestamp (hid_dg_scan_time in win8 ones)
computed by the hardware itself. This value is global to the frame and is
not specific to the multitouch protocol.

Jeff Brown 9fb0f14e31 Input: evdev - indicate buffer overrun with SYN_DROPPED
Add a new EV_SYN code, SYN_DROPPED, to inform the client when input
events have been dropped from the evdev input buffer due to a
buffer overrun.  The client should use this event as a hint to
reset its state or ignore all following events until the next
packet begins.
