[PATCH 0/4] Input patches for 2.6.12

From: Dmitry Torokhov

Hi Vojtech,

I have some patches that I would like to get in before 2.6.12 is out:

01-serio-resume-fix.patch
- do not attempt to disconnect port in resume handler if reconect
failed - let kseriod handle it. This fixes problem with swsusp
resuming devices before writing the image. If reconnect fails
at this point serio core will try to disconnect port and unregister
associated input device invoking hotplug which will block since
the system is half-frozen.

02-alps-reconnect-fix.patch
- apparently ALPS needs a reset before it starts responding with
proper IDs to the E6/E7 queries.

03-serport-oops-fix.patch
- serport should not call serio_interrupt or serio_write_wakeup on
unregistered port (happens if you move mouse aroung while shutting
down the system), also dynamic serio allocation needed to be reworked
to awoid memory leaks in case serport was never used.

04-serio-id-attribute-group.patch
- move serio port's 'id' attributes into separate subdirectory using
attribute group:
..devices/serioX/id_type -> ..devices/serioX/id/type
..devices/serioX/id_proto -> ..devices/serioX/id/proto
ID attributes were never part of a released kernel so if we were to
do the change now would be the time.

I have confirmation reports for patches 1-3. Please let me know what you
think.

Thanks!
