For some reason the axp288_adc driver was modifying the
AXP288_ADC_TS_PIN_CTRL register, changing bits 0-1 depending on
whether the GP_ADC channel or another channel was written.

These bits control when a bias current is send to the TS_PIN, the
GP_ADC has its own pin and a separate bit in another register to
control the bias current.

It has been a while. Just looked at the datasheet, reg 84h is for
ADC and TS pin control. IIRC, we had to set the TS bits in order to
make ADC read to work.

The bits the code I'm removing are manipulating are bits 0 & 1 of
reg 84h which are:

1-0 Current source from TS pin on/off enable bit [1:0]

00: off
01: on when charging battery, off when not charging
10: on in ADC phase and off when out of the ADC phase, for power
saving 11: always on

And they are being toggled between 10 and 11, so in both
cases the current source is enabled when reading the adc
value. Specifically the code this patch removes are setting
these bits to 10 before reading and back to 11 after reading,
which makes no sense.

And to make things even funkier, this manipulation is only
done when reading the GP_ADC, which is the ADC function of
GPIO0, whereas these bits control the bias current source
for the TS pin, which is a completely different pin.

So all in all this entire bit of code seems to be big NOP.

It could have been a quirk we had to do on our platforms, I just
cannot recall the details. Are you testing this on x86 platforms?

Yes, I've successfully tested this on 2 different models cherrytrail
tablets.

What is the other register?

The register to actually enable / disable the bias current
source for GPIO0 / the GPADC pin is register 85h, where setting
bit 2 enables the GPIO0 output current.

Hans



Not only does changing when to enable the TS_PIN bias current
(always or only when sampling) when reading the GP_ADC make no
sense at all, the code is modifying these bits is writing the
entire register, assuming that all the other bits have their
default value.
Agreed, it would be better to do read-modify-write and not to
touch the other bits.
So if the firmware has configured a different bias-current for
either pin, then that change gets clobbered by the write, likewise
if the firmware has set bit 2 to indicate that the battery has no
thermal sensor, this will get clobbered by the write.

This commit fixes all this, by simply removing all writes to the
AXP288_ADC_TS_PIN_CTRL register, they are not needed to read the
GP_ADC pin, and can actually be harmful.

I guess you probably have more up to date contact details than I
do, but seems worth trying to cc Jacob Pan on this to see if we
can find out what the original reasoning behind this was.  Seems a
very odd thing to do with no purpose!

If Jacob isn't contactable we'll fall back to guessing it was just
an oddity of driver evolution.
