Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.

In older versions of the elantech hardware/firmware those bits always
were unset, so it didn't actually matter, but newer versions seem to
use those high bits for something else, screwing up the coordinates
we report to the input layer for those devices.

The rotary encoder driver only supports returning input events
for ABS_* axes, this adds support for REL_* axes. The relative
axis input event is reported as -1 for each counter-clockwise
step and +1 for each clockwise step.
The ability to clamp the position of ABS_* axes between 0 and
a maximum of "steps" has also been added.

Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were
approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases.
Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both

Emil Medve points out that this documentation file uses CRLF line
endings, which means that if you use
[core]
autocrlf=input
(which makes sense if you ever develop under Windows, for example, or if
you use other broken tools) in your git config, git will always complain
about the file being dirty.
This removes the bogus DOS line endings, and removes whitespace at the
end of line.

Adds support for dance pads to the xpad driver. Dance pads require the
d-pad to be mapped to four buttons instead of two axes, so that
combinations of up/down and left/right can be hit simultaneously.
Known dance pads are detected, and there is a module parameter added
to default unknown xpad devices to map the d-pad to buttons if this is
desired. (dpad_to_buttons). Minor modifications were made to port the
changes in the original patch to a newer kernel version.
This patch was originally from Dominic Cerquetti originally written
for kernel 2.6.11.4, with minor modifications (API changes for USB,
spelling fixes to the documentation added in the original patch) made
to apply to the current kernel. I have modified Dominic's original
patch per some suggestions from Dmitry Torokhov. (There was nothing
in the patch format description about multiple From: lines, so I
haven't added myself.)
