So you want me to add something like the following?

- x-size : deprecated name for touchscreen-size-x
- y-size : deprecated name for touchscreen-size-y

x/y related properties: pixels
pressure related properties: arbitrary range dependent on the controller

I think this is ti specific. But I should probably name the tsc2005
property "ti,x-plate-ohms", so that its in sync with tsc2007.

like this?

- touchscreen-inverted-x: X axis is inverted
- touchscreen-inverted-y: Y axis is inverted
- x-invert: deprecated name for touchscreen-inverted-x
- y-invert: deprecated name for touchscreen-inverted-y

Inverting is currently not supported by the input system, though. So
adding support for it to input_parse_touchscreen_of_params() is not
trivial :/

I think those are hardware specific. The properties are currently
used by one driver, which writes them directly into some registers.
The DT binding does not give more information about them.

I think those should have been vendor-prefixed.
