[PATCH 18/20] Input: atmel_mxt_ts - read num messages, then all messages

[Daniel Kurtz]

Implement the MXT DMA method of reading messages.
On an interrupt, the T44 report always contains the number of messages
pending to be read.  So, read 1 byte from T44 in 1 i2c transaction, then
read the N pending messages in a second transaction.

The end result is a much much faster read time for all pending messages.
Using 400kHz i2c, it is possible to read 10 pending messages (e.g. for 10
moving contatcts) in less than 2.8ms, which is well less than the typical
10-15ms update rate.

Note: There is a possible optimization here.  The T44 byte is guaranteed
to always be right before the T5 address.  Thus, it should be possible
to always fetch the T44 message count and the first message in a single
transaction.  This would eliminate the overhead of a second complete read
transaction for the case where there is only a single pending message.
(This is actually the most common case, for instance with just 1-contact
on the device touch surface). This optimization, however, is not done in
this patch.
