Public bug reported:

The mx4 touch screen sends a BTN_TOOL_FINGER key event during the touch
down and up.. This interferes with position tracking inside libinput and
leads to invalid positions being reported and in some cases jumping of
the position just before the release of a touch contact.

There is a fix posted at the libinput mailinglist, but those have not
been applied yet. (Peter is on vacation).

Latest update of the touch screen patches (these will compensate the initial 
jumping of touch contacts , but not fix the mx4 issue)

The last step, the actual mx4 fix:
