SubjectRe: [PATCH] Input: synaptics-rmi4 - Report slot as inactive when contact is a palm

If we are relying on hardware to do palm rejection, then we should not
be reporting the rest of the events for palm either (i.e. the condition
in the if statement above should also be updated).

But I do not understand why userspace doe snot do the right thing? Yes,
the slot is active, but reported contact type is MT_TOOL_PALM, so it
knows what it deals with.

Thanks.
