OK, I've applied that patch plus:

commit 57157becdd1d23e6c2b8661ffe6c78d7d605d121
Author: Henrik Rydberg <rydberg@euromail.se>

    Input: bcm5974 - adjust major/minor to scale
    
    By visual inspection, the reported touch_major and touch_minor axes
    are a factor of two too small. Presumably the device actually reports
    the semi-major and semi-minor axes. Corrected with this patch.
