And to make it a little more complicated, here is a Wacom site that
shows it as 217mm.  Probably they are rounding because they list
everything in round numbers, including small as 147 instead of 147.2.

I can see why US site rounded down to 216mm.  That's standard value
people use for US 8.5 inch paper width.

I say we go with 21650 instead of 21648.  My thinking is that worst
case the driver will not report those last 2 values and not much seen
by applications.  On the other hand, if an application receives a
value greater than the defined maximum, its more likely to cause a bug
to be seen.
