Description:
when manipulationg some input devices in certain ways together with evdev driver, xorg server crashes with:

Fatal server error:
Bad valuators reported for device Mouse0

I confirm affected devices:
- some microsoft mice (tested presenter 8000, notebook 4000): crash on left/right scroll
others have reported:
- some alps touchpads: crash by touching it

although the left/right scroll emits events but not button events, at least it doesn't bring the whole server down.
   badvaluators.patch (0.5 KiB)
This task depends upon
