No, the "header" is not 10 bytes as far as I can see. IIUIC the device
sends packet with 1st byte containing number of contacts + (n_contacts *
GOODIX_CONTACT_SIZE) worth of data. The driver tries to optimize for
single-touch scenario and reads the counter and the very first contact
data and if the counter indicates more than one contact it will issue
second i2c transaction to read in the rest.

Your change did not alter the actual code, it just converted constant 10
into a define.

Please try changing FIXMEs exactly as they were and see if the driver
still works properly.

Thanks.
