[PATCH 3.11 105/208] Input: mousedev - allow disabling even without CONFIG_EXPERT

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Thu Dec 19 2013 - 07:34:32 EST


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

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

From: Tom Gundersen <teg@xxxxxxx>

commit dfaaed08ecc01bd513248ba7999daf50ce028352 upstream.

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.
