The code has one patch where (ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID, ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR) is
reported, and another patch where (ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID, ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR,
ABS_MT_POSITION_X, ABS_MT_POSITION_Y) is reported. This is incorrect. Either
send the release event with ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR set to zero, or do not report the
finger at all.

BTN_TOUCH should be placed first for the benefit of mousedev (is this correct,
Dmitry?), but there is no restriction on the ordering between MT events and
other events in the package.

In the MT protocol lingo, this is actually not a tracking id, but a slot id. A
tracking id increases for every new touch, and can be a much larger number than
the number of slots. Since the MT slot protocol is in the pipe now, perhaps you
would like to become the first driver to use the MT slots protocol? It seems it
would simplify the code of this driver.
