[PATCH xf86-input-evdev] Fix buffer overrun when populating axis label property array

Wed Jun 6 12:07:12 PDT 2012
The axis label property array currently only has enough elements for the
non-multitouch axes. This change allocates enough space for all axes,
which prevents an array overrun write. This may manifest as stack
corruption on some platforms.
