basically a good improvement, but removing the BIT_MASK(EV_ABS) makes problems
when replacing the next lines

by touchscreen_parse_properties() as done by my patch set.

The problem is that touchscreen_parse_properties() does not call input_set_abs_params()
but touchscreen_set_params(). This does not call some input_set_capability(dev, EV_ABS, axis)
but rather checks that it has been set before! Hence we only see warnings in the log
and no input event properties (BTN_TOUCH works but without position information).

So we either must explicitly input_set_capability(dev, EV_ABS, axis) for all three
axises or remove the test in touchscreen_set_params and call
input_set_capability(dev, EV_ABS, axis); in the end.

This patch improves the existing driver but breaks my tsc2007 patch set in a location
that my patch set does not even touch (touchscreen_set_params).

Scratching my head how to come out of this...

BR and thanks,
Nikolaus
