Hardware manufacturers group keys in the weirdest way possible. This may
cause a power-key to be grouped together with normal keyboard keys and
thus be reported on the same kernel interface.

However, user-space is often only interested in specific sets of events.
For instance, daemons dealing with system-reboot (like systemd-logind)
listen for KEY_POWER, but are not interested in any main keyboard keys.
Usually, power keys are reported via separate interfaces, however,
some i8042 boards report it in the AT matrix. To avoid waking up those
system daemons on each key-press, we had two ideas:
 - split off KEY_POWER into a separate interface unconditionally
 - allow filtering a specific set of events on evdev FDs

Splitting of KEY_POWER is a rather weird way to deal with this and may
break backwards-compatibility. It is also specific to KEY_POWER and might
be required for other stuff, too. Moreover, we might end up with a huge
set of input-devices just to have them properly split.

Hence, this patchset implements the second idea: An event-mask to specify
which events you're interested in. Two ioctls allow setting this mask for
each event-type. If not set, all events are reported. The type==0 entry is
used same as in EVIOCGBIT to set the actual EV_* mask of filtered events.
This way, you have a two-level filter.

We are heavily forward-compatible to new event-types and event-codes. So
new user-space will be able to run on an old kernel which doesn't know the
given event-codes or event-types.

+ * argument must be of type "struct input_mask" and specifies the event-type to
+ * query, the receive buffer and the size of the receive buffer.
+ *
+ * The event-mask is a per-client mask that specifies which events are forwarded
+ * to the client. Each event-code is represented by a single bit in the
+ * event-mask. If the bit is set, the event is passed to the client normally.
+ * Otherwise, the event is filtered and and will never be queued on the
+ * client's receive buffer.
+ * Event-masks do not affect global state of an input-device. They only affect
+ * the open-file they're applied on. Each open-file (i.e, file-description) can
+ * have a different event-mask.
+ *
+ * The default event-mask for a client has all bits set, i.e. all events are
+ * forwarded to the client. If a kernel is queried for an unknown event-type
+ * or if the receive buffer is larger than the number of event-codes known to
+ * the kernel, the kernel returns all zeroes for those codes.
+ *
+ * At maximum, codes_size bytes are copied.
+ *
+ * This ioctl may fail with ENODEV in case the file is revoked, EFAULT
+ * if the receive-buffer points to invalid memory, or EINVAL if the kernel
+ * does not implement the ioctl.
