Thanks for the patch. I would prefer it if this driver was converted
to use input_mt_assign_slots() instead.

Why not save the variables instead of the array?

Relying on the box (x1, y1, max(x1, x2), max(y1, y2)) seems to assume
a lot about the behavior of the device.

Looks like this point could differ from the reported MT positions.
