You're right.

Would something like:

"""
input: touchscreen: of: Rework the DT parsing function

The DT parsing function currently duplicates a lot of the code to
parse the touchscreen DT properties.

In order to ease further additions to this parsing routine, rework it
slightly to create new helper functions.

"""

be good enough?

Maxime
