I've noticed crashes when using my x60t using a coreboot bios. When using
the pen I can produce a crash simply by tapping a few times. This
generates an event which has an idx of 0xc. This in turn crashes the
machine because the array access is greater than W8001_MAX_LENGTH. This
patch checks for bogus values and filters them in order to prevent crashes.
