Re: Goodix touchscreen works intermittently, fails reading config info.

Irina,
  The user just reported... "the TS is not working every time, here is
a log from when it is not working". The below logging appears to show
that setting the default trigger_type=0 when read_config fails does
not make a difference.  His statement that it's not working *every
time* is curious because he said before it was working like 9 out of
10 times he booted up.

I'm waiting for him to send the ACPI table data you requested.  I was
not sure exactly how to do this. I asked him to run this series of
commands which worked on my machine.  Is it OK?

mkdir ~/acpitables
cd /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/
for i in * ; do sudo cat $i > ~/acpitables/$i.dat; done
cd ~/acpitables
for i in * ; do iasl -d $i ; done
cat *.dsl >> chuwi_hi12_acpi.dsl

Also: following is an older log prior to my code changes where
read_config was succeeding but the user reported the touchscreen was
registering touch events in the wrong place.  This may have been some
fluke as he has not been reporting this type of problem happening
often or since.  Also appended to the end of this log is output from
dmidecode if it's  helpful:  http://pastebin.com/6QWF6JB8
