[PATCH] Input: rc-keymap - return KEY_RESERVED for unknown mappings

From: Dmitry Torokhov
Date: Sat Jan 29 2011 - 02:33:53 EST


Do not respond with -EINVAL to EVIOCGKEYCODE for not-yet-mapped scancodes,
but rather return KEY_RESERVED.

This fixes breakage with Ubuntu's input-kbd utility that stopped returning
full keymaps for remote controls.

Linus,

Due to the fact that contents of drivers/media in my 'for-linus' branch
are quite different from mainline/Mauro's trees and I am not planning on
merging this branch until closer to the next merge window I am sending
this regression fix in patch form instead of pull request.

Please consider applying.

Thanks,
Dmitry
