A simple RecyclerView item click/longTap listener.

RecyclerItemClickListener.OnItemClickListener itemClickListener = ... // new instance
listener = new RecyclerItemClickListener(getActivity(), itemClickListener);
mList.addOnItemTouchListener(mCurrentlyRegisteredListener);

Make sure to remove currently added touch listener before the new one is added. RecyclerView keeps a list of all listeners, so adding a new listener does not clear the previous one.
