Linus Torvalds b12dd0fa48 Input updates for v7.3-rc3
- Fixes for evdev and input compat handling to zero-initialize on-stack
   absinfo and force-feedback effect structures before partial or compat
   copies from userspace, preventing kernel stack memory disclosure
 
 - Fixes for the Synaptics RMI4 driver to prevent an out-of-bounds read
   when writing multi-chunk blocks over SMBus and to avoid a NULL pointer
   dereference during suspend/resume when the RMI device is unbound
 
 - Fixes for the soc_button_array driver to propagate -EPROBE_DEFER on
   non-Bay Trail/Cherry Trail platforms (fixing broken power and volume
   buttons on the Microsoft Surface Pro 11) and to validate the ACPI
   package element count before dereferencing
 
 - A fix for the adp5588-keys driver to cache the initial GPIO hardware
   state before registering the gpiochip so pre-configured pin states are
   not clobbered by GPIO hogs during registration
 
 - A fix for the cyttsp5 touchscreen driver to clamp the device-supplied
   HID report size before copying into the response buffer, preventing a
   buffer overflow
 
 - A fix for the HP SDC serio driver to use timer_shutdown_sync() on
   module exit so the periodic kicker timer cannot rearm itself during
   teardown
 
 - A fix for the eeti_ts touchscreen driver to export its OF module alias
   so the module autoloads on Device Tree platforms
 
 - Updates to the xpad joystick driver adding support for the Victrix Pro
   BFG controller and Azeron devices, and fixing the device type
   classification for the PDP Marvel Xbox 360 controller
 
 - Quirks for the i8042 and atkbd drivers to keep the built-in keyboards
   functional on the Acer Aspire Go 15 AG15-42P and Xiaomi Redmi Book Pro
   16 2026
 
 - A quirk for the Synaptics PS/2 touchpad driver disabling SMBus
   InterTouch on the Lenovo ThinkPad T440p (board ID 2722) so the
   touchpad and TrackPoint respond immediately at boot
 
 - Other minor updates and documentation fixes, including reading the
   "ti,poll-period" property as u32 in tsc2007, adding the mt6572
   compatible to the MediaTek keypad Device Tree binding, fixing an
   attribute name typo in the trackpoint sysfs ABI documentation, and
   documenting that no new LED codes should be added to the input
   subsystem.
