  10 Subject: [PATCH v3 libinput] touchpad: serial synaptics need to fake new touches on TRIPLETAP
  11
  12 On the 4.1 kernels synaptics pretends to have 3 slots (the serial fw only does
  13 2). This was added to avoid cursor jumps but has since been reverted for 4.2
  14 (kernel commit dbf3c37086, 4.1.3 is still buggy). In some cases a TRIPLETAP
  15 may be triggered without slot 2 ever activating.
  16
  17 While there are still those kernels out there, work around this bug by opening
  18 a new touch point where none exists if the fake finger count exceeds the slot
  19 count.

  26 Changes to v2:
  27 - split out the handling instead of having a tmp state variable, see Hans'
  28   comments from v2

  30 Mainly sending this to the list again so I have a link to point people to.
  31 If you're on 4.1.x add this patch to your distribution package.
