I am really confused about this distinction. Could you please elaborate
why wacom driver only supports 0x056a (and, curiously, some Lenovo)
devices.

Thanks.

Do these really need to be controlled separately from the main
touchcsreen orientation?

We already have touchscreen-inverted-x/y defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/touchscreen/touchscreen.yaml,
why are they not sufficient?

I am still confused of the notion of flipped distance.
