Hmm, I think _gpiod_direction_output_raw() will not let them as it
checks FLAG_USED_AS_IRQ, so as long as it's the same line it's OK. But I
guess if they are separate some other component might try to grab it and
mess with it.

OK, in this case please:

- use devm_gpiod_get
- request with GPIOD_OUT_LOW
- do not override the return value with -ENODEV (especially important
  with probe deferrals)
- lose gpiod_direction_output() call
- move everything into egalax_ts_probe() as egalax_wake_up_device() is
  no longer self-contained. 

Thanks!
