If I'm reading the old code correctly it would be OK even if interrupt
was only delivered on initial touch, and then we'd be simply polling
the device...

So what happens when pen goes up just as you are leaving the ISR? The
controller would clear interrupt, but you already reported touch and
would not report release. The controller needs to make sure that it
keeps the line low even after you removed pen/finger, until you read
controller state once again so you can reliably report touch release.

Does this make sense?

Thanks.
