What is the reasoning to simultaneously report the same event
via both ACPI and input?
The event is reported to ACPI because there are legacy apps that read
/proc/acpi/event for this ASIM event. Newer apps can use the F1...
events that they can get via evdev. btw, if CONFIG_INPUT is disabled,
atlas_input_report gets dummied out and it's reported only to ACPI.
I can remove the acpi_bus_generate_event if that's the consensus.
Thanks,
jaya
