Hi Stephen,

Overall looks good, couple of issues:

Please consider implementing open() and close() methods for the
input device and start/cancel the polling work from there. There
is no need to poll hardware if nobody is listening for the events.

Please use input_free_device() here.

input_free_device() should not be used once device has been successfully
registered - input core will free the memory once the last reference is
dropped (call to input_unregister_device usually does that).
