This patch prevents a corner case where the device use contactID 0 for
it's first reported touch.
Once you got the invalid touches, most of the time, contactID will be
0, x, y, and other fields too. So this ensures to avoid conflict
between valid values and garbage values. The problem lies in the fact
that we don't have the whole overview of the frame (with the contact
count) to decide which contacts are good and which are not.
Cheers,
Benjamin
