* [PATCH] Input: synaptics-rmi4 - Do not set reduced reporting mode thresholds are not set by the driver

The previous patch "c5ccf2ad3d33 (Input: synaptics-rmi4 - switch to
reduced reporting mode)" enabled reduced reporting mode unintentionally
on some devices, if the firmware was configured with default Delta X/Y
threshold values. The result unintentionally degrade the performance of
some touchpads.

This patch checks to see that the driver is modifying the delta X/Y
thresholds before modifying the reporting mode.

Hi Andrew,

could this be the cause of a stuttering cursor on a P50 as well?
A recording in the issue below shows the cursor moving by ~25 units per
event, regardless of the time between those events.

thanks!

Yes, that's very much possible, as reduced reporting mode is about only
reporting events once they cross a predefined movement threshold.

Lucas
