This is needed because the controller doesn't always report when all fingers
have left the screen. e.g. report might contain 3 fingers touched and then
gpio_attb line is de-asserted. There's no report with 0 fingers touched even
if the user's fingers have left the screen. So we never detect a BUTTON_UP.

Without this s/w workaround we observe side effects like buttons being pressed
but not released. To me it looks like a bug in the controller.

cheers,
