General impression: There is a lot of useful code in here, but as already
pointed out, well over half of it should not be part of the kernel driver.

Suggestion 1: Clean out the internal state code and use MT protocol B instead.

Suggestion 2: Cut out the single touch calculation, as already pointed out by
Trilok. Why not submit it to the mtdev project instead? The problem is generic
to all new MT drivers, so a common solution while waiting for full MT support in
userspace could be useful.

Thanks,
Henrik
