Keep a failing PS/2 mouse usable until it's convenient to replace it. Filter incoming packets: drop invalid ones and attempt to correct for dropped bytes. New parameter 'filter' makes filtering and logging selectable, set to 0 to shut off all effects. Tested on AMD64, full coverage. No one else has tried this yet. Signed-off-by: Jim Hill <gjthill@xxxxxxxxx> --- This is a second version, choosier about accepting apparently-valid start bytes, no redundant test and more concise syslog and changelog text. This is my first patch, I hope I got the procedures right, apologies in advance if I goofed something. My mouse failed while in XP, but I didn't know it - it seemed it'd need cleaning soon. On booting into Linux, it was dangerous, wild slews and random clicks. The difference was consistent, making it seem the problem wasn't the mouse.
