Thanks for the help!

I have managed to get the device to be a hid-multitouch (instead of
hid-generic).

I also think I have figured out a way to get the properties to
hid-multitouch from the i2c-hid device. It requires a change to
touchscreen.c, but it's not a big change.

The main problem now is that hid-multitouch.c::mt_process_slot() isn't
actually called. The code just calls input_sync() from
hid-multitouch.c::mt_report(). It doesn't get to mt_process_slot() due
to rdata->is_mt_collection not being true. Setting
rdata->is_mt_collection to true causes userspace not to see the wacom
input any more.
