Hi all,
I may have missed earlier conversations around this subject, but is this
something we really want? I mean if a pressure sensitive button reports
both digital and analogue values at the HID level, shouldn't we pass both
onto userland.

Maybe I could have worded it better, but in this patch here both digital
and analog values _are_ being passed to userland.

Since the hardware supports disabling this, there could be a sysfs knob
for this but I could not think of use case for it. Please let me know if
it is useful.
