Subject: [PATCH] Stowaway 2.6.17.1

Hi,
this patch adds support for stowaway and stowaway compatible (eg. dicota
inutPDA) serial keyboards. I made it on kernel 2.6.16, but it applies cleanly
on 2.6.17.1 too. I tested it on palm zire71 and friend reported me that it
works on palm tungsten T3.

I appologize, I?m not subscribed to LKML.

Best regards
Marek Vasut

Hi,

Looks pretty good, I have a question though:

How does "init sequence" gets here? Normally inputattach initializes
hardware and then creates proper serio port...

You need to handle errors from input_register_device() too.
