[PATCH 1/9 v4] Input: synaptics - refactor y inversion

From: Daniel Kurtz
Date: Thu Aug 18 2011 - 07:29:24 EST


Synaptics touchpads report increasing y from bottom to top.
This is inverted from normal userspace "top of screen is 0" coordinates.
Thus, the kernel driver reports inverted y coordinates to userspace.

This patch refactors this inversion.
