Allow driver to initialize its own values for input_dev->rep[REP_DELAY]
and input_dev->rep[REP_PERIOD], but also use the software autorepeat
functionality from input.c.
For example, a HID driver could do:
static void xyz_input_configured(struct hid_device *hid,
struct hid_input *hidinput)
{
hidinput->input->rep[REP_DELAY] = 400;
hidinput->input->rep[REP_PERIOD] = 100;
hidinput->input->softrepeat = true;
}
static struct hid_driver xyz_driver = {
.input_configured = xyz_input_configured,
}
