    Input: goodix - add support for controllers without flash · 09182ed2
    Hans de Goede authored
    Some Goodix touchscreen controllers, such as for example the GT912,
    don't have flash-storage for their firmware.
    
    These models require the OS to load the firmware at runtime, as well as
    some other special handling. Add support for this to the goodix driver.
    
    This patch was developed and tested on a Glavey TM800A550L tablet.
    
    Note the "goodix,main-clk" and "firmware-name" device-properties used
    by the new code are *not* documented in the
    Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/touchscreen/goodix.yaml
    device-tree bindings for now.
    
    Not documenting these is intentional. This is done because this code has
    only been tested on x86/ACPI so far, where devicetree is not used.
    Instead these properties are set through a software-fwnode attached to the
    device by the drivers/platform/x86/touchscreen_dmi.c code. This means that
    the use of this properties for now is purely a kernel-internal thing and
    the name/working of the properties may still be changed for now.
