Heh, funny enough I was trying to fix
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207235 and was pondering
this one too.

To fix #207235, I'll likely need to add a new class and quirk in
hid-multitouch. I can't really find a generic solution for now, and we
better have a local quirk for the 2 devices we currently have and
backport those to stable. However, this patch will likely conflict
(trivially), with the new quirks, so I was thinking:
- submitting my quick and dirty quirk and mark it to stable
- apply this one on top of it (this one really doesn't need to go to stable)

How does that sound?

Cheers,
Benjamin
