Input: add input driver for polled GPIO buttons
The existing gpio-keys driver can be usable only for GPIO lines with interrupt support. Several devices have buttons connected to a GPIO line which is not capable to generate interrupts. This patch adds a new input driver using the generic GPIO layer and the input-polldev to support such buttons.
