Input: add support for autorepeat maximum count
Add REP_MAX_COUNT to input device, so that it doesn't repeat a key
press forever. This protects from the case where GFRM100 sends
a key-down event but never sends a key-up event due to Bluetooth link
going down or some other device error.
The autorepeat parameters of an input device can be read and modified
by using ioctl() on the input event device, e.g. /dev/input/event0.
The parameters can also be set directly from the driver that creates
the input device by calling input_enable_softrepeat().
This change evolved from Bruno 2.6.37 kernel commits:
