Ok, I apparently missed this whole subthread yesterday, only getting back 
to it when going over my old queues.

Yeah, it's not pretty, but how about moving that EV_KEY thing into the 
switch() statement? Also, the printk could certainly be a bit more useful.

But before doing _any_ of that, the first thing to do should be to not 
have that four-deep indentation by just splitting that horrible function 
up a bit.

IOW, start off with a patch like the appended, and _then_ add the special 
case handling to the EV_KEY thing. It would probably be most easily done 
by just literally limiting "len" to OLD_KEY_MAX. Something like

   #define OLD_KEY_MAX 0x1ff
   ...
	case EV_KEY:
		bits = dev->keybit;
		len = KEY_MAX;
		/* Hacky workaround for old bug in Xorg */
		if (buf_len == OLD_KEY_MAX) 
			len = OLD_KEY_MAX;
		break;
  ...

or similar.

Yeah, it's not pretty, but pragmatism before beauty.
