Hi Anatolij, Michael,

I hope you can shed some light for me: why does pdm360ng have very
elaborate set up for the "pendown" GPIO of the touchscreen? Can we
simply fix the DTS in arch/powerpc/boot/dts/pdm360ng.dts and specify
correct pendown GPIO there, as well as correct interrupt trigger,
and remove most of arch/powerpc/platforms/512x/pdm360ng.c ?

Something like this:

diff --git a/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/pdm360ng.dts b/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/pdm360ng.dts
index 67c3b9db75d7..5651bd9d9db3 100644
--- a/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/pdm360ng.dts
+++ b/arch/powerpc/boot/dts/pdm360ng.dts

+ pendown-gpios = <&gpio 25 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
};
};



The reason I'm asking is that I want to remove support for platform
data in ads7846 driver and pdm360ng is one of the last 3 users of it in
the kernel.

Thanks.
