gpio-button-hotplug: unify polled and interrupt code
This patch unifies the polled and interrupt-driven gpio_keys code
paths as well implements consistent handling of the debounce
interval set for the GPIO buttons and switches.
Hotplug events will only be fired if
1. The input changes its state and remains stable for the duration
of the debounce interval (default is 5 ms).
2. In the initial stable (no state-change for duration of the
debounce interval) state once the driver module gets loaded.
Switch type inputs will always report their stable state.
Unpressed buttons will not trigger an event for the initial
stable state. Whereas pressed buttons will trigger an event.
This is consistent with upstream's gpio-key driver that uses
the input subsystem (and dont use autorepeat).
Prior to this patch, this was handled inconsistently for interrupt-based
an polled gpio-keys. Hence this patch unifies the shared logic into the
gpio_keys_handle_button() function and modify both implementations to
handle the initial state properly.
The changes described in 2. ) . can have an impact on the
failsafe trigger. Up until now, the script checked for button
state changes. On the down side, this allowed to trigger the
failsafe by releasing a held button at the right time. On the
plus side, the button's polarity setting didn't matter.
Now, the failsafe will only engage when a button was pressed
at the right moment (same as before), but now it can
theoretically also trigger when the button was pressed the
whole time the kernel booted and well into the fast-blinking
preinit phase. However, the chances that this can happen are
really small. This is because the gpio-button module is usually
up and ready even before the preinit state is entered. So, the
initial pressed button event gets lost and most devices behave
as before.
Bisectors: If this patch causes a device to permanently go into
failsafe or experience weird behavior due to inputs, please
check the following:
- the GPIO polarity setting for the button
- the software-debounce value
