IMO just process_touch() is better, otherwise it's more confusing ("wait?
why is this normal? and what's not normal? or is this an abbreviation of
normalized?")

this should be notify_touch_normalized() because that's what the extra
values are. That calibration affects those is just an implementation detail.

Also, at this point I can only say creating structs for each coordinate type
in libinput has helped greatly in understanding what exactly you're dealing
with at any point in time. see libinput-private.h:

/* A coordinate pair in device coordinates */
struct device_coords {
        int x, y;
};

/* A dpi-normalized coordinate pair */
struct normalized_coords {
        double x, y;
};

/* A pair of coordinates normalized to a [0,1] or [-1, 1] range */
struct normalized_range_coords {
        double x, y;
};


etc. These are passed through the various functions, so the compiler will
tell you when you're passing a device coordinate into something that should
take a [0, 1] normalized range. I cannot recommend this enough when you're
dealing with more than one coordinate system.

one space to many
