    Input: of_touchscreen - add support for touchscreen-min-x|y · d9265e8a
    Hans de Goede authored
    Some touchscreens, depending on the firmware and/or the digitizer, report
    coordinates which never reach 0 along one or both of their axis.
    
    This has been seen for example on the Silead touchscreens on a Onda V891w
    and a Point of View mobii TAB-P800w(v2.0).
    
    This commit adds support for touchscreen-min-x and touchscreen-min-y
    device-properties which can be set to communicate the actual start
    coordinates (rather then 0,0) to userspace.
    
    This commit also drop the "(in pixels)" comment from the documentation
    of the touchscreen-size-x and touchscreen-size-y properties. The comment
    suggested that there is a relation between the range of reported
    coordinates and the display resolution, which is only true for some
    devices. The "(in pixels)" comment is replaced with "(maximum x coordinate
    reported + 1)" to mirror the language describing the new touchscreen-min-x
    and -min-y properties.
    
    When set this fixes e.g. not being able to click things in the GNOME3
    top-bar on the 2 example tablets.
