This is a resend, list seems to have eaten first copy.

Hi Vojtech,

Here is the new set of input patches that I have. You have seen some of
them, buit this time they are rediffed against 2.6.4-rc1 and in nice order.

01-atkbd-whitespace-fixes.patch
        simple whitespace fixes

02-atkbd-bad-merge.patch
        clean up bad merge in atkbd module (get rid of MODULE_PARMs,
        atkbd_softrepeat was declared twice)

03-synaptics-relaxed-proto.patch
        some hardware (PowerBook) require relaxed Synaptics protocol checks,
        but relaxed checks hurt hardware implementing proper protocol when
        device looses sync. With the patch synaptics driver analyzes first
        full data packet and either staus in relaxed mode or switches into
        strict mode.

04-psmouse-whitespace-fixes.patch
        simple whitespace fixes

05-psmouse-workaround-noack.patch
        some mice do not ACK "disable streaming mode" command causing psmouse
        driver abort initialization without any indication to the user. This
        is a regression compared to 2.4. Have kernel complain but continue
        with prbing hardware (after all we got valid responce from GET ID
        command).

06-module-param-array-named.patch
        introduce module_param_array_named() modeled after module_param_named
        that allows mapping array module option to

07-joystick-module-param.patch
        complete moving input drivers to the new way of handling module
        parameters using module_param()

08-obsolete-setup.patch
        introduce __obsolete_setup(). This is a drop-in replacement for
        __setup() for truly obsolete options. Kernel will complain when sees
        such an option.

09-input-obsolete-setup.patch
        document removed or renamed options in input drivers using
        __obsolete_setup() so users will have some clue why old options
        stopped having any effect.
