Hi Takashi,

This is type of patch I was concerned with.  Using only 1/5 distance
of touchpad to discard invalid packets seems pretty low threshold.

If we can prevent change of ABS_X/ABS_Y only at touch transitions then
we can make use of following commit to prevent unwanted jumps.

Basically, its "if (prevFinger != currentFinger) count_packet_finger = 0;".
