Input: Send events one packet at a time

On heavy event loads, such as a multitouch driver, the irqsoff latency
can be as high as 250 us.  By accumulating a frame worth of data
before passing it on, the latency can be dramatically reduced.  As a
side effect, the special EV_SYN handling can be removed, since the
frame is now atomic.

This patch adds the events() handler callback and uses it if it
exists. The latency is improved by 50 us even without the callback.

Input: Improve the events-per-packet estimate

The events-per-packet estimate has so far been used by MT devices
only. This patch adjusts the packet buffer size to also accomodate the
KEY and MSC events.  Keyboards normally send one or two keys at a
time. MT devices normally send a number of button keys along with the
MT information.  The buffer size chosen here covers those cases, and
matches the default buffer size in evdev. Since the input estimate is
now preferred, remove the special input-mt estimate.

CPU hotplug, writeback: Don't call writeback_set_ratelimit() too often during hotplug

The CPU hotplug callback related to writeback calls writeback_set_ratelimit()
during every state change in the hotplug sequence. This is unnecessary
since num_online_cpus() changes only once during the entire hotplug operation.

So invoke the function only once per hotplug, thereby avoiding the
unnecessary repetition of those costly calculations.

sched: don't call task_group() many times in set_task_rq()

It improves perfomance, especially if autogroup enabled.

The size of set_task_rq() was 0x180 and now it is 0xa0.
