Thanks for noticing that; you're right, it's necessary.  I only tested
CONFIG_HID_EGALAX=y, which doesn't seem to require the blacklist entry.
I've tested that using the blacklist with =m works now.

I've added a comment, feel free to reword it if you'd like to.  Thanks
for the excellent research!

Subject: [PATCH] USB HID: Add ID for eGalax Multitouch used in JooJoo tablet
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The JooJoo tablet (http://thejoojoo.com/) contains an "eGalax Inc. USB
TouchController", and this patch hooks it up to the egalax-touch driver.
Without the patch we don't get any cursor motion, since it comes through
Z/RX rather than X/Y.

(The egalax-touch driver does not yet generate a correct event sequence
for the "serial" protocol used by this device, though -- see the note
added to the code, which comes from research by Stéphane Chatty.)
