That's ancient :)

No, it doesn't and never has. In 62aa366d9b015 I added a bit of documentation:
/*
* used to get the packet len. possible return values:
* > 0: packet len
* = 0: skip one byte
* < 0: -return value more bytes needed
*/
int (*get_pkt_len) (unsigned char *pkt, int len);
So -1 means "need one more byte for a complete data packet". That byte will be
in delivered in the next invocation of usbtouch_irq(). One "touchscreen data
packet"
can be split across multiple "usb packets" for some devices.
