There's currently no facility to push sample rate requests down into the
kernel from userspace.  However, this is a good idea in general - there
was some recent (brief) discussion of doing this on the linux-input list.
Since different use cases have different sample rate requirements (such
as the difference between handwriting recognition which can need 200
samples/second and a simple finger operated menu which may be happy with
10) there's value in being able to vary the sample rate at run time.  I
was intending to look at this shortly as part of some touchscreen driver
development I need to do soon or perhaps someone else will pick up the
idea, if it does get implemented then obviously tslib would also be able
to use it here.
