[PATCH 3.18 01/36] Input: do not emit unneeded EV_SYN when suspending

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 00159f19a5057cb779146afce1cceede692af346 upstream.

Do not emit EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT on suspend if there were no keys that are
still pressed as we are suspending the device (and in all other cases when
input core is forcibly releasing keys via input_dev_release_keys() call).
