Hi all.

I run into issues caused by this change. It turns out that the device
is non-functional
after some warm-reboots and as a result I am not able to use xorg's
evdev driver.
So I have some questions about this change:

* Should we enable irq before calling i2c_master_send(..) as the chip raises an
  irq if the command was processed?

* Would it be enough to send this command only once during driver
lifetime? I can
  see that on my system open gets called 3 times during boot-up.

* What are the circumstances the touch device would be in an other state? In the
  official kernel driver the userspace can send commands via sysfs.
Also the driver
  does set the touch enable mode as this patch does.
