NACK, this was intentional.

Evdev sets itself up from the data the kernel provides. If you can
statically configure the calibration (i.e. how far off the kernel
data is from the real data) then fix the kernel driver.

Evdev calibration is just for those devices that require different
calibration each time and this needs to be done at runtime anyway then.

Cheers,
