I basically looked at the registers uses for the config update:

https://github.com/TadiT7/android_kernel_mtk-4.4/blob/master/drivers/input/touchscreen/mediatek/GT5688/include/gt1x_tpd_common.h#L152
https://github.com/TadiT7/android_kernel_mtk-4.4/blob/master/drivers/input/touchscreen/mediatek/GT5688/gt1x_generic.c#L430

That and the fact that the driver is doing it's job well made me believe
that's good for base support. Things like hotknot, gesture wakeup and
proximity sensor will need additional work.
