For what it's worth, I tried the 3-patch series from that branch on
5.4-RC5, but the ts_calibrate and ts_test_mt do not appear to receive
touch info.  They execute when I 'export
TSLIB_TSDEVICE=/dev/input/event0' but I don't get touch data.

If I do a hex-dump of /dev/event0 and it dumps data if and only if I
hold my finger on the touch screen for a while.

I'll try just doing the 1st patch to see if it it's any better.
