Re: [PATCH 2/6] dt-bindings: Input: edt-ft5x06 - add disable wakeup-source documentation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

all of you using a edt,* touchscreen and currently the driver marks
the touchscreen as wakeup source. To keep backward compatibility I added
a workaround binding (see below) but Dmitry prefer to use the normal
"wakeup-source" binding and change the affected device-tree's
(discussion below). Can you give me your ack/nack for Dmitry's solution?

Regards,
  Marco
