Just return ret and check it with < 0 meaning error

memcpy is quite useful and the kernel one inlines nicely

So a user can fill the system log ? not good

You seem to have no locking on parallel actions and a rather meaningles
atomic

and unlocked too

In fact the locking seems to be utterly busted everywhere in the driver.

What if the IRQ is shared ?

Threaded irq will sort this lot out for you

You seem to have no locking on this either

These should probably come from platform data

Leaks memory

Ditto

What if it's not on a gpio. Probably better any gpio and irq conversion is
done by the platform callback/init code


And the sysfs nodes need documentation.


Overall it looks like a lot of input drivers that get posted here

- Nobody has considered locking between actions and sysfs (or multiple
sysfs actions in parallel)
- Enable/disable is implemented in blissful ignorance of what happens if
a disable occurs during a sysfs or other action

Most of the rest looks like it just needs a good polish.
