This is too generic. I think something like V4L2_TOUCH_FMT_DELTA_S16 is much
more appropriate since this is neither luma (Y) data nor a picture in the
classic sense. Since we already use V4L2_SDR_FMT_* defines for software defined
radio formats, it makes sense to use V4L2_TOUCH_FMT_* for these touch panel
formats.
The description can be based around what you told here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/27/278
It's also important that you clearly state what the delta is against. A delta
implies a difference from something, but what that something is isn't explained.
I'm sorry for being pedantic about this, but it should be possible to make an
application that can correctly interpret this data based on this format
description. Otherwise there would be no point in documenting this...

Hans
