The patch titled
     Subject: input: redefine INPUT_COMPAT_TEST as in_compat_syscall()
has been added to the -mm tree.  Its filename is
     input-redefine-input_compat_test-as-in_compat_syscall.patch

This patch should soon appear at

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: input: redefine INPUT_COMPAT_TEST as in_compat_syscall()

The input compat code should work like all other compat code: for 32-bit
syscalls, use the 32-bit ABI and for 64-bit syscalls, use the 64-bit ABI. 
We have a helper for that (in_compat_syscall()): just use it.
