[PATCH 4.20 161/171] media: Revert "media: rc: some events are dropped by userspace"

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 12 2019 - 13:59:46 EST


4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sean Young <sean@xxxxxxxx>

commit 05f0edadcc5fccdfc0676825b3e70e75dc0a8a84 upstream.

When an rc device is created, we do not know what key codes it will
support, since a new keymap might be loaded at some later point. So,
we set all keybit in the input device.

The uevent for the input device includes all the key codes, of which
there are now 768. This overflows the size of the uevent
(UEVENT_BUFFER_SIZE) and no event is generated.

Revert for now until we figure out a different solution.

This reverts commit fec225a04330d0f222d24feb5bea045526031675.
