Hmm, I see:

                touchscreen-max-x = <4096>;
                touchscreen-max-y = <4096>;
...that's n900 dts.. this should be size-x/size-y... so we have a bug
in dts.

But the 3eea8b5d68c801fec788b411582b803463834752 is buggy, it should
not overwrite ->maximum for axis it has no devicetree data for.

Maybe replacing

+       if (maximum || fuzz)

in 3eea to (maximum && fuzz)... would help, but it is late in the
cycle now, so I'd suggest just reverting 3eea8b.

Thanks,
