[PATCH 2/2] input: allow MOUSEDEV=m even without EXPERT=y

From: Tom Gundersen
Date: Tue Sep 03 2013 - 09:40:31 EST


Moust (if not all) modern software, including X, uses /dev/eventX rather than
the legacy /dev/mouseX devices. It therefore makes sense for general-purpose
(distro) kernels to use MOUSEDV=m (or even n), so let's drop the EXPERT=y
requirement.

Say Y here if you want your mouse to be accessible as char devices
