Some platform designs handle ESD better and do not need the SW mechanism, so the property can be used to disable it. I also saw an example in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/touchscreen/tsc2005.txt and I though this is the standard way to use it. > Can we not just choose a sensible default and allow this to be > overridden dynamically? I could separate the enabling part from the actual poll timeout by using a DT property to enable/disable ESD and a sysfs property to set the timeout. I can also move this over to sysfs entirely if you prefer.
