The current reset-gpio support triggers an interrupt storm on platforms
using the maxtouch with level based interrupt. The Motorola Droid 4,
which I used for some of the tests is not affected, since it uses a level
based interrupt.

This change avoids the interrupt storm by enabling the device while
its interrupt is disabled. The following mxt_initialize() requires,
that the device is responsive (at least mxt224E is unresponsive for
~22ms), so we wait some time. We don't wait for leaving bootloader
mode anymore, since mxt_initialize() checks for it anyways.

This fixes a boot problem on GE PPD (watchdog kills device) and also
has been tested on the Droid 4.

Fixes: f657b00df22e ("Input: atmel_mxt_ts - add support for reset line")

I found this confusing. Interrupt storm happen with level-based interrupts,
but the Droid4 is not affected?

IMHO, having some more or less arbritrary sleeps is almost
always a problem. This value might be enough for some platform,
might be too short for some other, and then it might get too large
for someone else.

Can't we enable the IRQ here, just before the wait...

This is a typo. Droid 4 has an edge based interrupt defined, PPD has
an level based interrupt defined. PPD got an interrupt storm, Droid 4
did not.

The 22ms chip-being-unresponsive are not newly introduced. The
same 22ms are also required for soft-reset. I did introduce a
new time (MXT_RESET_GPIO_TIME) for the "chip being reset" state,
since my randomly chosen 200ms from before were exaggerated
considering all mxt datasheets I checked stated only a few nano
seconds.

Yes and no. We need the wait, since the interrupt pin does random
stuff for 100ms after reset. We can do the wait-for-completion
after that time (see mxt_soft_reset function). I kept it simple,
since the following init does another soft reset anyways.

Can I ask what happens during the interrupt storm. Are you getting lots
of the "failed to read T44 and T5" message, or something else?

According to the data sheets there is a period after a reset where the
CHG line is temporarily set as an input, during which the host should
ignore it. If you don't, you might get a stray interrupt and try and
communicate with the device, which might leave it in a bad state. I
think you mentioned that later in your email.

The reset time varies per chip, but the 100ms in mxt_soft_reset() was
based on discussions with app support at Atmel, so should be correct in
most cases.

I don't get any message (with DEBUG enabled for the driver).
The boot process hangs and after a few seconds the watchdog kicks in.

Right. This sleep time is missing for the gpio based reset. The
other checks are not required, since the chip initialization
routine is called directly afterwards. I will send a PATCHv2,
that fixes the patch description and uses the same timeout value
for both resets.
