Title:
  Backport Surface 3 touchscreen driver

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Expired
Status in linux source package in Yakkety:
  Expired

Bug description:
  The surface3_spi touchscreen driver finally hit Linus' kernel tree in
  v4.8rc1. It would be great if this could be backported to the kernels
  that Ubuntu ships.

  The relevant upstream commits should be:
  e399037e06beec6d190a302ff5e4fee4aae77c50 ACPI / scan: set status to 0 if _STA failed
  30f3a6ab44d8d06bb3d94f6320e4aa76df59d025 spi: pxa2xx: Add support for both chip selects on Intel Braswell
  4feacbc24eea0c5f36728017575cc0ad28d8758b Input: add new driver for the Surface 3
  427ee20610a7c252e99d08e08e70a4203c6059d0 Input: surface3_spi - Prepare to add support for Surface Pen
  72fb4765ac9eea56a94282f29cdc70706f21494e Input: surface3_spi - add surface pen support for Surface 3

  These should hopefully be enough to get the touchscreen working. 4.4
  is a really old kernel, so there might be some additional ACPI fixes
  needed. I'm not 100% certain. This is all that was needed on top of
  4.6.

  Config options needed on i386 and amd64:
  CONFIG_SPI_PXA2XX=m
  CONFIG_PINCTRL_CHERRYVIEW=m
  CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_SURFACE3_SPI=m
