3bfd5c5baf Input: add generic GPIO-tilt driver
There exist tilt switches that simply report their tilt-state via
some gpios. The number and orientation of their axes can vary
depending on the switch used and the build of the device. Also two
or more one-axis switches could be combined to provide multi-dimensional
orientation.

One example of a device using such a switch is the family of Qisda
ebook readers, where the switch provides information about the
landscape / portrait orientation of the device. The example in
Documentation/input/gpio-tilt.txt documents exactly this one-axis
device.

395cf9691d doc: fix broken references
There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.

Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
they were part of.

Éric Piel
71c6d18859 Input: elantech - describe further the protocol
For some Dell laptops, Ubuntu had a special version of the elantech
driver with more knowledge on the devices. It can be found there:
http://zinc.ubuntu.com/git?p=mid-team/hardy-netbook.git;a=blob;f=drivers/input/mouse/elantech.c;h=d0e2cafed162428f72e3654f4dda85e08ea486b3;hb=refs/heads/abi-22

By inspecting the source code, and doing some test on a real hardware, I
have completed the protocol specification (especially for the 6 bytes
protocol). It also adds information about the mapping between the
version reported by the device and the protocol to use.

0ea6e61122 Documentation: update broken web addresses.
Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.
