Delete the never-compiled source file drivers/input/power.c, and
remove its entry from the corresponding Makefile, as there is no
Kconfig file that refers to the config option INPUT_POWER

This modifies Makefiles and Kconfigs to properly reflect the creation of
generic HID layer.

It also removes the dependency of BROKEN, which was introduced by the
first patch in series (see the comment). Also updates credits.

Implement a new force feedback interface, in which all non-driver-specific
operations are separated to a common module. This includes handling effect
type validations, locking, etc.

The effects are now file descriptor specific instead of the previous strange
half-process half-fd specific behaviour. The effect memory of devices is not
emptied if the root user opens and closes the device while another user is
using effects. This is a minor change and most likely no force feedback
aware programs are affected by this negatively.

Otherwise the userspace interface is left unaltered.

This will allow building input core module from several files
which is needed for the reworked force feedback support.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
