Hi Simon,
sorry but as for Luca I've lost mail with mail filter.
See below my ideas on how to improve it.
Thanks
Cheers

Hi Luca,
I had problems with e-mail filter, so I rebuilt yours by hand.
Forgive me.
See below.
Thanks
Kind regards

I need to add some other IC register to calibrate sensibility with
different glasses, but starting from ft5x06 or other Focaltech standard
IC FW.

In my case driver recognizes M09, but only address 0x80
register(thgroup) is correct.
The others:
GAIN: 0x92
GAIN: 0x93
GAIN: 0x94
GAIN: 0x95
are not described in that datasheet.
The point is that datasheet seems to be official by Focaltech,
like if they deliver that IC with a standard FW inside.
I can't find a way to safely probe if it's a standard FW or from EDT M09
or M06.
I wouldn't write a different driver ft5x.c because it's a repeatition,
but EDT seems a special version(FW) of ft5x.
Maybe on dt-bindings I could force to be EDT or standard.
On legacy sunxi-3.4 the driver handled this as datasheet I mentioned.
What do you think?

I have FW with registers as described at
https://www.buydisplay.com/download/ic/FT5206.pdf
and I would like to add them as attributes more and dt-bindings to
improve trimming.
I would call those registers the same as manual:
THGROUP
THCAL
etc.
And I would also like to add a tasklet that recalibrate every
minute(specified by attr or dt-binding).
I want to do this(already done succesfully on 3.4) because I've
experienced problems on temperature and mechanical drifts.
