Assuming this binding makes sense for the input people, there should
be no conflicts merging this patch along with the rest of the series
via the input tree.

Sounds like this value probably depends on the size of the touchscreen
for the capacitance, so a numeric value is really needed here. Of course
I would personally prefer generic bindings in general, but in any case
please feel free to merge along with the other input patches:
