[git pull 12/14] Input - help swsusp

[Dmitry Torokhov <dtor_core@ameritech.net>]

Input: make serio and gameport more swsusp friendly

kseriod and kgameportd used to process all pending events before
checking for freeze condition. This may cause swsusp to time out
while stopping tasks when resuming. Switch to process events one
by one to check freeze status more often.
