Thank you for the patch.

This data is not part of dynamic state of the device but rather
describes it's physical characteristics and as such should not be
transmitted as input events. We should consider extending input_absinfo
and making this data available via EVIOCGABS ioctl but we need to be
careful with keeping compatibility with existing clients.
