Subject: [PATCH v6 1/4] dt-bindings: touchscreen: add touch-overlay
 property

The touch-overlay encompasses a number of touch areas that define a
clipped touchscreen area and/or buttons with a specific functionality.

A clipped touchscreen area avoids getting events from regions that are
physically hidden by overlay frames.

For touchscreens with printed overlay buttons, sub-nodes with a suitable
key code can be defined to report key events instead of the original
touch events.

+    description: list of nodes defining segments (touch areas) on the
+      touchscreen.
+
+      This object can be used to describe a series of segments to
+      restrict the region within touch events are reported or buttons
+      with a specific functionality.
+
+      This is of special interest if the touchscreen is shipped with a physical
+      overlay on top of it with a frame that hides some part of the original
+      touchscreen area. Printed buttons on that overlay are also a typical
+      use case.
+
+      A new touchscreen area is defined as a sub-node without a key code. If a
+      key code is defined in the sub-node, it will be interpreted as a button.
+
+      The x-origin and y-origin properties of a touchscreen area define the
+      offset of a new origin from where the touchscreen events are referenced.
+      This offset is applied to the events accordingly. The x-size and y-size
+      properties define the size of the touchscreen effective area.
+
+      The following example shows a new touchscreen area with the new origin
+      (0',0') for the touch events generated by the device.
+
+                   Touchscreen (full area)

+
+      Sub-nodes with key codes report the touch events on their surface as key
+      events instead.
+
+      The following example shows a touchscreen with a single button on it.

+
+      Segments defining buttons and clipped toushcreen areas can be combined
+      as shown in the following example.
+      In that case only the events within the touchscreen area are reported
+      as touch events. Events within the button areas report their associated
+      key code. Any events outside the defined areas are ignored.
