Actually I think we should just drop references to particular input
handlers in the Kconfig as, strictly speaking, the driver does not
depend on either of them.

The text in other tablets came from time when whole input layer was a
novelty and nobody was sure what should be enabled. Nowadays every
distribution (I hope) has evdev enabled as it becomes main interface
between X and kernel and the legacy mouse and keyboard interfaces
(MOUSEDEV) are fading away.

While we are talking about the patch - I am usually OK with extending past
80 column limit, but some of the lines are pretty excessive. I'd prefer
not going above 95-100 unless it is a message string - we do not want to
break those.

Thanks.
