I tested the approach to add a .poll callback into struct input_device
and to let the input core register one poller for all input devices
rather than one poller for each device. This also gives the input core
better control when the input devices are polled. Would that approach go
into the right direction?
I have no ready-to-post patch for this approach, partly because it doesn't
solve the double-return problem and I currently don't understand why.
