    Subject[PATCH 3.12 53/62] Input: mousedev - allow disabling even without CONFIG_EXPERT
    Date
    3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Tom Gundersen <teg@jklm.no>

    commit dfaaed08ecc01bd513248ba7999daf50ce028352 upstream.

    Moust (if not all) modern software, including X, uses /dev/eventX rather than
    the legacy /dev/mouseX devices. It therefore makes sense for general-purpose
    (distro) kernels to use MOUSEDV=m (or even n), so let's drop the EXPERT=y
    requirement.

    Say Y here if you want your mouse to be accessible as char devices
