IMHO, the older binding needs to be supported as well. It's fine to
update the DTS for the new binding, but even Documentation says
touchscreen-max-[xy] and if the driver changed that, the driver should
be fixed too. Besides, it seems like this has been in tree since v3.16:

$ git describe a38cfebb56898633687ab337fd53710e63a0aedd
v3.15-rc5-72-ga38cfebb5689

So, because this has been wrongly documented for so long, we should
support both bindings. Sure, deprecate touchscreen-max-[xy], but they
must still be supported, IMO.

In any case, for this patch:
