Subject: [PATCH] hwdb: drop POINTINGSTICK_CONST_ACCEL
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The TODO says we were supposed to do that in 2019–2020 (if I interpreted the
enigmatic notation correctly). The comment in hwdb said:
> DO NOT USE THIS PROPERTY. This property is kept for backwards
> compatibility. The only known consumer, libinput, stopped reading this
> property in version 1.9.0. No new entries for this property should be
> added.
… and we're currently on libinput-1.23.0.

Most likely there are no users, and even if they are, they'll just get a
slightly misbehaving pointingstick, which shouldn't be too bad.

(cherry picked from commit 28dd29dd95089f676703c7eb355ceb6e2512bb41)
