Input: introduce managed input devices (add devres support)
There is a demand from driver's writers to use managed devices framework for their drivers. Unfortunately up to this moment input devices did not provide support for managed devices and that lead to mixing two styles of resource management which usually introduced more bugs, such as manually unregistering input device but relying in devres to free interrupt handler which (unless device is properly shut off) can cause ISR to reference already freed memory. This change introduces devm_input_allocate_device() that will allocate managed instance of input device so that driver writers who prefer using devm_* framework do not have to mix 2 styles.
