This patch is on top of the following:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9756467/
where button driver implements a frequency check and
thus is capable of filtering redundant events itself:
I saw you have deleted it from PATCH 02.
So this patch is not applicable now.

Is input layer capable of filtering redundant events.
I saw you unconditionally prepend "open" before "close",
which may make input layer incapable of filtering redundant close events.

If input layer is capable of filtering redundant events,
why don't you:
1. drop this commit;
2. remove all ACPI lid notifier APIs;
3. change lid notifier callers to register notification via input layer?

Thanks and best regards
Lv
