Title:
  Input hot-plugging patches for Xephyr

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Please consider including this patch series [1] for in Xenial's xorg-
  server package. It's a crucial one to get single-GPU multi-seat
  working in Ubuntu the easiest way (it works with all flavours that use
  LightDM as the default display manager), and would be a quite valuable
  feature for a LTS release, without need to maintain a forked package
  in Ubuntu Multiset PPA.

  I work with a large set of single-GPU multi-seat computers for
  education, and I'm trying to get these patches upstreamed in time for
  Xenial release, but I have no idea when Adam Jackson will get to
  review it.

  Patch [2] also needs to be backported, in order to get kdrive evdev
  driver built automatically as expected.
