From d0f0a1601449ded5a7bcaf954f9c75e6fd9d5183 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Torokhov Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2014 09:56:33 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Input: evdev - get rid of old workaround for EVIOCGBIT We put this workaround in 2008 and the offending userspace has been fixed up long time ago; the link in the message is no longer valid either, so it is time to retire it.
