Hi Chung-yih,

  From the definition of BTN_TOUCH, BTN_TOOL_<name> and BTN_TOUCH codes
are orthogonal. BTN_TOUCH should be zero if there is no physical contact
happened on device. With ABS_MT_DISTANCE information, the patch uses
touch_count and finger_count to get the final reporting code for
BTN_TOUCH and BTN_TOOL_<name>, respectively.

I don't really like this statement, even if it works. Some devices do
not report ABS_MT_DISTANCE, and the value for them should not be
considered as '0' but 'undefined'.

I'd rather test here if ABS_MT_DISTANCE is used, and then if the value is 0.

For the record, I *think* this will not break user space. This is used
in the touchpad part of libinput, and does not seemed to be impacted
by the change.
Adding Peter and Hans in CC who can tell us if I am assuming right.

Cheers,
