    Revert "HID: wacom: generic: Send BTN_TOOL_PEN in prox once the pen enters range" · 2f84723d

    This reverts commit 3e70969e.
    
    This commit causes a few problems for userspace. The most noteworthy are
    problems related to the distinguishing of different pens and pointer jumps
    when entering proximity. Userspace is written with the expectation that a
    pen will provide its tool ID and serial number (if available) in the very
    first in-prox report. By sending BTN_TOOL_PEN when the tablet starts
    communicating rather than waiting until a tool ID/serial number is
    available, userspace ends up treating all pens as being the same and
    lacking a serial number. Similarly, userspace assumes that the first
    report will contain X/Y data, but by marking the pen as being in-prox
    without an X/Y coordinate, userspace ends up warping the pen to the last-
    known X/Y location. As of commit 5b40104e
    
     ("HID: wacom: generic: Reset
    events back to zero when pen leaves") this means warping to (0,0).
