We seem to have that already partially implemented at least with
ti,swap-xy in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/ads7846.txt.

But that only works for the 90 degree rotation case as it's missing
something similar to touchscreen-inverted-x I just noticed few days
ago while trying to make some legacy code disappear :)

No idea where rotation should be specified. But if the panel is
rotated based on the DT property or kernel cmdline, probably the
touchscreen should be too? In most cases touchscreens are integrated
together with the LCD panel, and they are not separate like other
input devices.
