I do not think we can do that, at least not in such straightforward
manner, because while ABS_TOOL_WIDTH uses abstract units, normally in
the range of 0 - 15 (16 for bcm5974 driver) ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR reports in
surface units. We would need to come up with a way to scale one into
another and make sure we are not stomping on whatever driver choses to
implement on its own.

In addition, the conversion only makes sense for touchpads, not tablets
or touchscreens.
