Internally, xenbus_printf uses memory allocation, so it can be failed in
memory pressure.Therefore, xenbus_printf's return should be checked
and properly handled.

The second line of arguments should be aligned to the first parameter. I.e:

xenbus_printf(XBT_NIL, dev->nodename,
              "request-abs-pointer", "1");

See an example in xenkbd_backend_changed.

With that fixed:

Note that checkpatch.pl will print a warning here:

WARNING: Prefer pr_warn(... to pr_warning(...
#27: FILE: drivers/input/misc/xen-kbdfront.c:136:
+                       pr_warning("xenkbd: can't request abs-pointer");


Although, I'm fine if you don't fix this one.
