OK. Will remove them.

Ack. I will fix it.

Ack. I will fix it.

All these parameters are intended to set HW properties of touch buttons. 
Each button can have different PCB layout and when you start without 
setting these parameters in DT, then touches won't be detected or you 
will get false positive readings.
E.g. 'signal-guard' change property of analog input from button to some 
type of shield.
I made all of them optional for backward compatibility.
Maybe 'sensitivity-base-shift' is really not necessary to have in DT.
I will remove it if you agree.

Best regards,
Jiri Valek
