Commit 1017c1c6 has a huge security hole, which leaks private events to
listening clients after ungrabbing a device. Embarrassing. Please revert the
interdependent patches f789717a, 1f89879a, 1017c1c6. I will be back once these
patches are physically in the 2.6.36 queue in Dmitry's tree.

Thanks,
Henrik
