Re: [PATCH] Add Support for Novatek Touchscreen

[Benjamin Tissoires]

Hi Austin, Jiri,

I'm a bit concerned about this patch. Though it's fine for pre-3.5
kernels, it does not fit into the 3.5 work.
The thing is that it's easier to backport this patch in it's current
form, so I don't know exactly the best way to tackle this.

See comments inlined.

I don't think this should be included in 3.5-rc+ (the whole MT-related
devices has been removed from this list).

Shouldn't we use MT_USB_DEVICE instead?

Cheers,
