Hi Chris,

Thanks for taking a look!

Yup, good catch. I now see that this is true for the legacy single-touch case.
For consistency with the existing implementation, I'm ok to drop this patch.

I think we can still keep the range 4-15 for the ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR
axis, though, right?
A pure-mt userspace app can get the correct width range, and deduce 0
fingers from the fact that all MT-B slots have tracking_id == -1.
