Touchscreen is not working with KMSDRM backend (no X11 / Wayland).

I reported this bug upstream here:
https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/14644

It got fixed (one-line fix, replacing NULL with actual data) upstream in libSDL 3.2.30 and 3.4.0:

Best regards,

Betreff: Request: Backport Touchscreen Fix in libSDL3 3.2.30

Hi,

I reported a bug in libSDL3 (Touch not working with KMSDRM backend) which has been fixed in version 3.2.30 and 3.4.0. However, these Versions are not published for Debian Trixie. Since it is a one-line fix (replacing NULL with actual data) I am wondering whether this fix could be backported for use in Debian Trixie.

Best regards,
Marius
