NACK on this.
If the Surface has a buggy firmware, we should handle it as a special
case, not as a common failure.
Also, I am not sure this quirk is compatible with Win 8 specification.
Last, we now have a timeout for unreleased touches, so I really don't
think you need that in recent kernels.

Cheers,
Benjamin
