Yes, reported by several customers and I've seen it myself in testing
(Beagleboard + MXT Evaluation Kit). What happens is that the interrupt
triggers too early during the power on sequence after a soft reset and you
get an error message when the ISR fails to communicate on the appmode
address. There have been some anecdotal reports that the device may end up
stuck in the bootloader mode if this happens, although I'm not 100%
convinced this is accurate.

OK. I will try it. My Pixel is running Ubuntu with a mainline kernel, so
should be able to repro.
