-Subject: xf86: fix flush input to work with Linux evdev devices.
-
-So when we VT switch back and attempt to flush the input devices,
-we don't succeed because evdev won't return part of an event,
-since we were only asking for 4 bytes, we'd only get -EINVAL back.
-
-This could later cause events to be flushed that we shouldn't have
-gotten.
-
-This is a fix for CVE-2013-1940.
