Input: uinput - switch to the new FF interface
The userspace interface of the force feedback part is changed and documentation in uinput.h is updated accordingly. MODULE_VERSION is also incremented to reflect the revision. Signed-off-by: Anssi Hannula <anssi.hannula@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>
