Add missing string constants for {feature|request}-raw-pointer
to align with the rest of the interface file.

Fixes 7868654ff7fe ("kbdif: Define "feature-raw-pointer" and
"request-raw-pointer")

Juergen, you OK with an release-ack?
Yes:

Release-acked-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>
Is this ack for both patches or this one only?
It was meant for patch 1 only.
Clear
I see Konrad has applied this patch, but
"[Xen-devel][PATCH v4 2/2] xen/kbdif: Add features to disable keyboard
and pointer"
is still floating.
In principle I'm fine with taking it for 4.11, but I think at this stage
of the release there should be a formal request to include it.
...and the request should come from Konrad?
Or who else may request that?
Normally the sender of the patch would make this request below the ---
of the commit message, e.g.:
   ---
   This patch should go into 4.11 as it is needed for a related Linux
   kernel patch and the risk is next to zero for Xen due to only adding
   some macros not in use on Xen side.

The request can be made by anyone, of course, e.g. by replying to the
patch mail and including the release manager as a recipient.
Great, thank you
And, as I have r-b's from Konrad for both patches,
will it be ok if we apply the corresponding changes to the
kernel now, so my change to xen-kbdfront is unblocked?
No, please don't do that.
Sure

Juergen
Thank you,
Oleksandr
