Hi Dmitry,

I just noticed that control interface for gpio was applied to input-tree.
We still have a need to disable hw in certain cases. It is probably better
to forget generic implementation to input core and make control interface
as specific to each driver like proposed some months ago for example
for tel4030-keypad driver. Or what do you think?

Sw filtering which avoids to wakeup some processes is not proper solution
to embedded devices. We need to avoid waking up the processor itself.

Br,
Samu
