I have other patches to goodix driver that do power off the touch sensor chip
during sleep, so that it doesn't consume excessinve amounts of power when
the phone is suspended. Mainline doesn't. You have to adapt this to mainline,
because you're not upstreaming the required Goodix patches, for regulator-off-in-suspend
to not break things.

Yes, compatible string is sort of irrelevant, because the driver does runtime
auto-detection based on chip ID. I didn't bother with superficial issues in the
original code from Martijn/Kamil. Now that you're mainlining the code, this
should be sorted out, though.

There's no FW issue, I was just using the log to show you the actual chip ID the
driver detects.

(You should probably put my SoB after Kamil/Martijn, since I took the
maintenance/development of the driver after they wrote the base support
initially in secret. I'm not the original author of the code.)

Yes, and test the driver more thoroughly:

- look at clk_summary to verify clock rate the kernel thinks it's using
- test refresh rate, somehow, to again verify the actual clock rate (kernel can
  lie in debugfs)
- test power cycling the panel (eg. via system suspend/resume or other means)

thank you and kind regards,
