Fields like HID_DG_CONTACTCOUNT are outside of the physical collection,
but within the application collection and report ID.  Make sure to catch
those fields that are not part of the mt_report_id and return 0 so they
can be processed with the pen.  Otherwise, the wrong HID_DG_CONTACTCOUNT
will be applied to cc_index and result in dereferencing a null pointer in
mt_touch_report.

Hmm... That seems wrong.
td->mt_report_id is set in mt_touch_input_mapping(), so checking for
it before even entering the function seems a little bit odd and
activates my bug alert system :)

Could you please share the report descriptor of the device you are
trying to fix? Ideally, if you could get this by running hid-recorder
(http://bentiss.github.io/hid-replay-docs/) that would be even better
because you could also record some events from the pen and from the
touch.

I would also like to see a comment in the code which explains why we
need to have a special case to abort earlier.

Cheers,
Benjamin
