Ah, OK. So I guess the issue is that the ideal case involves more
interleaving of things? Right now, I think this is what happens is at
power off:

1. We call the "disable" of the panel code which enters sleep mode.

2. As panel follower, the touchscreen gets called to power off
_before_ the panel's unprepare stage. This is when we assert the
touchscreen reset GPIO.

3. We call the "unprepare" of the panel code which deasserts the
"enable" pin of the panel and then disables regulators.


The proper sequence is:

1. Stop i2c hid scanning

2. Panel enter sleep

3. Assert touchscreen reset

4. Deassert the "enable" pin of the panel and disable regulators.


Ick. I guess the only way we'd be able to really make this work would
be to extend panel follower to notify followers before _both_ the
disable and the unprepare. I guess I can put that on my todo list and
we can see what folks think. Looking closely at it, I agree that I
don't think we want to move the "touchscreen reset" functionality into
the panel even if it would probably work. That feels ugly.
