[ Upstream commit a2f416bf062a38bb76cccd526d2d286b8e4db4d9 ]
Certain touchscreen devices, such as the ELAN9034, are oriented
incorrectly and report touches on opposite points on the X and Y axes.
For example, a 100x200 screen touched at (10,20) would report (90, 180)
and vice versa.
This is fixed by adding device quirks to transform the touch points
into the correct spaces, from X -> MAX(X) - X, and Y -> MAX(Y) - Y.

Second rule of acceptance for stable patches:
- It cannot be bigger than 100 lines, with context.
Clearly not met here.
About a quarter of stable commits in the last 12 months breat the rule
above.
To me, this commit is something distributions may want to backport if
their users run are likely to run the affected hardware. But it's out
of scope for stable kernel branches.
Why? We explicitly call out new device IDs and quirks in the same doc
you quoted the 100 line rule from.
