No problem with this approach, I can retrieve the kind of sensors from
the linux,type property.

Can I set both ABS_X and ABS_Y? In the future, we may have a "surface"
object reporting coordinates for these axes. It seems there are no
generic helpers to parse the 'linux,code' property, so I assume it won't be a
problem.
