[RFC PATCH 1/2] Input: add `SW_MACHINE_COVER`

From: Merlijn Wajer
Date: Fri Feb 14 2020 - 08:01:12 EST


This event code represents the state of a removable cover of a device.
Value 1 means that the cover is open or removed, value 0 means that the
cover is closed.

This can be used to preempt users removing a removable mmc card or even
the battery, allowing userspace to attempt to safely unmount a card.
