Hi Dmitry,

nice catch, thanks! I will verify the operation on hardware some time 
over the weekend.
Small nitpick inline. With that changed:

Since this is now the last thing the function does, we can simplify the 
code a bit:
```
	error = input_register_device(input);
	if (error)
		dev_err(dev, "Unable to register input device\n");

	return error;
```
