Looking at this again this has nothing to do with the W9000 touchscreen
controller. The behavior is applicable to any device with a touchscreen
and a pen.

Rather this is a generic functionality/policy to put the pen
interface in low power mode when it is put away. I think this should be
done by userspace through combination to listening to the
SW_PEN_INSERTED events (via gpio-keys driver) and toggling "inhibit" on
the touchscreen device.

Thanks.
