+ description: list of nodes defining segments (touch areas) on the
+ touchscreen.
+
+ This object can be used to describe a series of segments to
+ restrict the region within touch events are reported or buttons
+ with a specific functionality.
+
+ This is of special interest if the touchscreen is shipped with a physical
+ overlay on top of it with a frame that hides some part of the original
+ touchscreen area. Printed buttons on that overlay are also a typical
+ use case.
+
+ A new touchscreen area is defined as a sub-node without a key code. If a
+ key code is defined in the sub-node, it will be interpreted as a button.
+
+ The x-origin and y-origin properties of a touchscreen area define the
+ offset of a new origin from where the touchscreen events are referenced.
+ This offset is applied to the events accordingly. The x-size and y-size
+ properties define the size of the touchscreen effective area.
+
+ The following example shows a new touchscreen area with the new origin
+ (0',0') for the touch events generated by the device.
+
+ Touchscreen (full area)
+ ┌────────────────────────────────────────┐
+ │ ┌───────────────────────────────┐ │
+ │ │ │ │
+ │ ├ y-size │ │
+ │ │ │ │
+ │ │ touchscreen area │ │
+ │ │ (no key code) │ │
+ │ │ │ │
+ │ │ x-size │ │
+ │ ┌└──────────────┴────────────────┘ │
+ │(0',0') │
+ ┌└────────────────────────────────────────┘
+ (0,0)
+
+ where (0',0') = (0+x-origin,0+y-origin)
+
+ Sub-nodes with key codes report the touch events on their surface as key
+ events instead.
+
+ The following example shows a touchscreen with a single button on it.
+
+ Touchscreen (full area)
+ ┌───────────────────────────────────┐
+ │ │
+ │ │
+ │ ┌─────────┐ │
+ │ │button 0 │ │
+ │ │KEY_POWER│ │

+
+ Segments defining buttons and clipped toushcreen areas can be combined
+ as shown in the following example.
+ In that case only the events within the touchscreen area are reported
+ as touch events. Events within the button areas report their associated
+ key code. Any events outside the defined areas are ignored.
