documentation: Format button_dev as a pointer.

2022-06-01T15:34:28+00:00

The docs on creating an input device driver have an example in which
button_dev is a pointer to an input_dev struct. However, in two code
snippets below, button_dev is used as if it is not a pointer. Make these
occurrences of button_dev reflect that it is a pointer.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dtor/input

2017-05-03T19:38:20+00:00

Pull input subsystem updates from Dmitry Torokhov:

 - a big update from Mauro converting input documentation to ReST format

 - Synaptics PS/2 is now aware of SMBus companion devices, which means
   that we can now use native RMI4 protocol to handle touchpads, instead
   of relying on legacy PS/2 mode.

 - we removed support from BMA180 accelerometer from input devices as it
   is now handled properly by IIO

 - update to TSC2007 to corretcly report pressure

 - other miscellaneous driver fixes.
