We are using a 1.11 xserver as our base, and then backporting the 1.12 input stack on top. Along the way, the input option api/abi was changed, but in a way that did not cause any compilation failures or even warnings due to bad programming style.

Two commits that were in the input stack were backported that were actually changes for the new input option abi instead of changes to the input subsystem. These commits may be found here:

Reverting these two commits fixes the crash.
