I noticed in its DSDT that one of my tablets actually is using the GPADC
pin for temperature monitoring.

The whole axp288_adc_set_ts() function is a bit weird, in the past it was
removed because it seems to make no sense, then this was reverted because
of regressions.

So I decided to test the special GPADC pin handling on this tablet.
Conclusion: not only is axp288_adc_set_ts() necessary, we need to sleep a
bit after making the AXP288_ADC_TS_PIN_CTRL changes before sampling the
GPADC, otherwise it will often (about 80% of the time) read 0 instead of
its actual value.

It seems that there is only 1 bias current source and to be able to use it
for the GPIO0 pin in GPADC mode it must be temporarily turned off for the
TS pin, but the datasheet does not mention this.

This commit adds a sleep after disabling the TS pin bias current,
fixing the GPADC more often then not wrongly returning 0.

Hans,

This is sufficiently weird that I want your opinion on what
to do with this.   Are we looking at a necessary fix for a hardware
platform that we should push out asap and mark for stable?

Or is this a bit of an odd corner case where a slower path makes
more sense?

Since we have had this bug for ages and no-one has noticed I think
taking this a bit slower is fine. Would be nice to get it into 4.13,
but no need for a Cc stable IMHO.

Thanks & Regards,

Hans



I'm happy either way.

Jonathan
