Hi Benjamin,

Late as it seems, here are a couple of questions:

1. How was this tested? By removing all white-listed devices in
hid-multitouch.c to see if the usual suspects are still picked up?

2. Having the device blacklist inside hid-multitouch.c seems awkward.
I can see the benefits of putting it in a module, but is there any
other rationale? Right now the blacklist duplicates the hid whitelist.

Thanks,
Henrik
