Great, I was not actually convinced that ABS is really needed
to be put here while dealing with MT devices,
so the above can be removed

Unfortunately I didn't have time to test the patch today, but will try
to do so tomorrow.

Beside that, do you think that the removals above should go into my patch
and the rest of yours (it looks like needed refactoring to me) should go 
into
a separate one, not named "MT support fixups", but rather "Xen input
driver refactoring"? Because part of the changes seems to be MT relevant
and part is pure refactoring.
If so, do you want me to rework your patch with these changes and add on
top of mine (I will put your signed off) or you will handle it on your own?
