Subject[PATCH] [v3]Input: evdev - drop partial events after emptying the buffer
Date
This patch introduces concept to drop partial events in evdev handler
itself after emptying the buffer which are dropped by all evdev
clients in userspace after SYN_DROPPED occurs and this in turn reduces
evdev client reading requests plus saves memory space filled by partial
events in evdev handler buffer.
Also, this patch prevents dropping of full packet by evdev client after
SYN_DROPPED occurs in case last stored event was SYN_REPORT.
(like after clock change request)
