Subject: [PATCH 09/11] Input: MT - add INPUT_MT_TOTAL_FORCE flags

From: Angela Czubak <aczubak@...gle.com>

Add a flag to generate ABS_PRESSURE as sum of ABS_MT_PRESSURE across
all slots.
This flag should be set if one knows a device reports true force and would
like to report total force to the userspace.
