Why don't you pull alps_probe_trackstick_v3() from alps_identify(),
rename it into __alps_identify() and then have real alps_identify be:
static int alps_identfy(struct psmouse *psmouse, struct alps_data *priv)
{
int error;
error = __alps_identify(psmouse, priv);
if (error)
return error;
if (priv->proto_version == ALPS_PROTO_V3 &&
(priv->flags & ALPS_IS_RUSHMORE)) {
/*
* Some Dell Lattitudes may not always recognize
* tracksticks without resetting the device.
*/
psmouse_reset(psmouse);
error = __alps_identify(psmouse, priv);
if (error)
return error;
if (alps_probe_trackstick_v3(psmouse,
ALPS_REG_BASE_RUSHMORE))
priv->flags &= ~ALPS_DUALPOINT;
}
return 0;
}
This way you minimize number of devices exposed to extra reset.
Thanks.
