Hi Dmitry,
Thank you very much for the review and the patches. One question, when
sending new versions of the patch-set, do you want me to keep the
history of your patches or should I merge all of them and submit just
three patches (core, i2c, spi) to make easier future revisions?
Sure, Kevin will cleanup the SPI read method and I will make
cyttsp_power_on more cleaner.

Yes, the controller can be put to sleep (low power mode). I will add
that to the close function for the next version of the patch-set.

It was meant to let each board to decide if it wants to go sleep and
to define a specific handler for wakeup. This is for example the board
file of the OMAP Encore machine type (B & N Nook's color)
static struct cyttsp_platform_data cyttsp_i2c_platform_data = {
.wakeup = cyttsp_i2c_wakeup,
.init = cyttsp_i2c_init,
.....
}
In the same way it exists an init board specific function that gets
called from cyttsp_core_init() if the board has defined one:
void *cyttsp_core_init(struct cyttsp_bus_ops *bus_ops,
struct device *dev, int irq)
{
....
if (ts->platform_data->init) {
if (ts->platform_data->init()) {
dev_dbg(ts->dev, "%s: Error, platform init failed!\n",
__func__);
goto error_init;
}
}
....
}
This is necessary because each board may need to configure differently
the connection with the chip. For example, OMAP boards will have to
configure the mux pins and so on.
Is this correct? or the driver should not have these handlers and
trust that the platform specific code did all the set up before?
Again, thank you for the review and your comments.
Best regards,
