Btw I have a doubt regarding this dependency. While hid-appletb-bl has made into the linux-next tree, it has still not been merged into Linus' tree, and neither the drm tree I assume. It potentially could cause issues?
Yes. We cannot merge this driver until we have this symbol in our tree. But that will happen sooner or later.

More problematic is that your driver selects HID_APPLETB_BL. From what I've seen, this symbol is user configurable, so the driver shouldn't select it. You need to use 'depends on' instead of 'select' here.
I assume we need the same for HID_MULTITOUCH as well, since it's needed for the touch feedback.

Indeed. Same goes for HID_MULTITOUCH.
