Hi Dmitry,

I want to confirm my thought for your idea to avoid misunderstanding.
I think you want to encapsulate " BTN_TOOL_FINGER" in the [input_mt_report_pointer_emulation] if hover happen.
Vendor driver only report "ABS_DISTANCE" and let [input_mt_report_pointer_emulation] emit BTN_TOOL_FINGER report without change function parameter.

Please let me know if my misunderstand about your idea.
Yes, that is correct. Something like this:
diff --git a/drivers/input/input-mt.c b/drivers/input/input-mt.c
