We are going to update a patch of using MT-B, because Synaptics devices are capable of tracking identifiable contacts (type B). Thanks for pointing out this. You are right, there is already a synaptics_i2c_rmi4 driver in staging state (drivers/staging/ste_rmi4). Actually synaptics_ds4_i2c driver is developed based on synaptics_i2c_rmi4 driver. The point is that we would want to make a clear definition that synaptics_ds4_i2c only targets to DS4 family, so that we can keep maintaining driver focusing on DS4 product line (not all Synaptics touchscreen devices are DS4 compatible). We are open to discuss if it is appropriate to retained DS4 driver, and please let us know if you have any concerns.
