The bug has been present from the beginning, but it didn't surface
until another commit to change x_max and co because MT feature is
mostly used only for scrolling and such simple behavior. For
scrolling, even the bogus MT_X value could work casually with the
certain x_max value used in the original commit.
Actually, by fiddling with x_max (either less than 2200 or greater
than 3000), the two-finger scroll "works", although it shouldn't.

With x_max set to 2432, what range of x values does this print when scrolling works, and what range of values are printed when scrolling doesn't work?
