I am tempted to simply disregard this request. It has been known for
ages that the evdev values are cached, so if you do not have the value
you need that means that the value has been sent previously (or you
can request it upon start with an ioctl). So in this particular case,
I don't really see the logic in forcing the SERIAL into the TOOL type
when the tool is clearly unrelated to the serial.

My fear here is that by linking together too many axes, we may enter
in a state where we can not untangle them when needed.

I am under the impression that you completely missed the point of the
patch series. This series re-orders the processing of the events, and
if you look at the very first hunk in this patch, you'll see that the
new processing ensures we treat INVERT and ERASER before TIPSWITCH, no
matter the order of the device.

So when we process TIPSWITCH here, we are sure that if BTN_TOOL_RUBBER
is set, either INVERT or ERASER is set to 1, whether or not they come
before or after in the report.

evtest is the output of the kernel, and it doesn't give me much more
than "it's broken". However, if you can give me the hid-recorder
outputs, I'll be able to reproduce locally and compare the output as I
fix the code. Of course the best would be to add test cases in the
hid-tools repo, but I'll need the hid-recorder anyway to understand
what is failing and to be able to write the tests.
