Won't it become a problem if other thread puts device into suspended /
bootloader state in the same time?

right, I will use mutex lock to prevent such case.
also I think data->mxt_status.intp_triggered isn't necessary,
when lock is used.

Won't it be cleaner to stop/start the watchdog instead of messing with
the locks?

will stop/start watchdog work when necessary in next version

Thanks,
Jiada

What will happen if debug_state was false during of mxt_probe() and then
the debug_state parameter was changed to true via sysfs?

module_param debug_state is added with permission 0,
so it's value won't change during driver operation

Thank you for the clarification, I didn't realize that setting
permission to 0 hides the parameter completely in sysfs.

Anyways, I'm still thinking that the condition removal will make code
cleaner a tad.
