Hello!

In accordance to page 16 of

https://www.openbsd.org/papers/eurobsdcon2017-device-drivers.pdf

I am hereby following up on my patch for the imt(4) submodule of the
OpenBSD kernel. (This time with a new subject)



You can find the latest version here:

With this Email, I would like to ask for help with testing & reviewing it.
This patch should increase the number of Touchpad/Touchscreen devices.

So two things need to be tested:

1. Is it working where it did not work before?
If you have a Laptop where two-finger scrolling was not working, OR 
where the cursor only moves if you are using 5 fingers, please apply it
and check if it is now behaving as you would expect it to.

2. Is it STILL working where it worked before?
If you have a Laptop on which two-finger scrolling was working, 
please apply the patch and see if it still behaves the way you expect
it to behave.

Addtionally:
Please have a look at the source code to see if it can be made more
compliant with style(9).


Thank you so very much in advance.


Thomas
