Sorry that it took so long to find the offending commit, it appears that
the issue occurs on my 4.3" display but not on my 7" display. I first
performed the git bisect on the 7" display which ended up being fruitless.

Then I switched over the the 4.3" display and found the commit which starts
having the issue.

    Input: ti_am335x_tsc - remove udelay in interrupt handler
    
    TSC interrupt handler had udelay to avoid reporting of false pen-up
    interrupt to user space. This patch implements workaround suggesting in
    Advisory 1.0.31 of silicon errata for am335x, thus eliminating udelay and
    touchscreen lag. This also improves performance of touchscreen and
    eliminates sudden jump of cursor at touch release.
    
    IDLECONFIG and CHARGECONFIG registers are to be configured with same values
    in order to eliminate false pen-up events. This workaround may result in
    false pen-down to be detected, hence considerable charge step delay needs
    to be added. The charge delay is set to 0xB000 (in terms of ADC clock
    cycles) by default.
    
    TSC steps are disabled at the end of every sampling cycle and EOS bit is
    set. Once the EOS bit is set, the TSC steps need to be re-enabled to begin
    next sampling cycle.

Hope this sheds some light.
