From a718d79cc0e0c2f0aa82ba2c54383a18f15b7738 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Hutterer Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2011 22:25:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Input: uinput - allow for 0/0 min/max on absolute axes. Some devices provide absolute axes with min/max of 0/0 (e.g. wacom's ABS_MISC axis). Current uinput restrictions do not allow duplication of these devices and require hacks in userspace to work around this. If the kernel accepts physical devices with a min/max of 0/0, uinput shouldn't disallow the same range.
