If user tries to initialize uinput device mixing old and new style
initialization (i.e. using old UI_SET_ABSBIT instead of UI_ABS_SETUP,
we forget to allocate input->absinfo and will crash when trying to send
absolute events:
ioctl(ui, UI_DEV_SETUP, &us);
ioctl(ui, UI_SET_PHYS, "Test");
ioctl(ui, UI_SET_EVBIT, EV_ABS);
ioctl(ui, UI_SET_ABSBIT, ABS_X);
ioctl(ui, UI_SET_ABSBIT, ABS_Y);
ioctl(ui, UI_DEV_CREATE, 0);

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
