Hi,

this proposal is incomplete. If you don't want remote wakeup you
imply that input is no longer needed or possible. If that is
already known, we can just as well inform the driver, so that
it can cease IO for input.

Yet that is not necessarily the only scenario. For example
if you run a screensaver, you might not care for where the
user touches the screen, but the event as such is valuable.
