Yes, after lifting the first contact, what remains is the second contact, which
is the one getting reported. Again, stateless protocol. ;-)

Yes. I meant there should be at least one event when all fingers are up. Since
you report ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR = 0 for every finger going up, this is already
guaranteed, and you can disregard my last comment.
