[PATCH] dix: fix error logging occuring in signal context of GetTouchEvents

GetTouchEvents is usually called in a signal context.
Calling ErrorF for the error messages leads to X complaining about log:

(EE) BUG: triggered 'if (inSignalContext)'
(EE) BUG: log.c:484 in LogVMessageVerb()
(EE) Warning: attempting to log data in a signal unsafe manner while in signal context.
Please update to check inSignalContext and/or use LogMessageVerbSigSafe() or ErrorFSigSafe().
The offending log format message is:
%s: Attempted to start touch without x/y (driver bug)
