Work Items

Work items:
Review 3.9 based branch of common.git looking at wakelock additions to already upstream code: TODO
Review wakelock additions to mmc code: DONE
Rework mmc wakelock enablement to use wakeup_sources: DONE
Send out initial RFC of mmc wakeup_source patch to lkml (6/13): DONE
Review wakelock additions to evdev code (doesn't make sense to upstream): DONE
Ping Android and evdev/input maintainers to make sure upstreaming makes sense (Arve replied, doesn't make sense to upstream, instead userland should migrate to EPOLLWAKEUP): DONE
Review AOSP hardware kernel trees to see if there are any hardware specific wakelock patches that affect upstream drivers: TODO
