I had a chat with Peter this morning. TL;DR is I'll need to rework on
this more heavily to provide the final version with MT axes, and skip
the single device implementation. I have no ideas if the Dell Canvas
can report more than one totem, but the report descriptor would say so,
so we better have a proper implementation instead of having one for
single device capable and one for multiple devices.
I'll probably send a v2 just to address the issues raised here, but it
shouldn't be merged given that user space will not be accepting such
version.
