From fd746d540abf8c686f5f868ae62112692e684088 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Miao Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2009 16:54:59 -0700 Subject: Input: ads7846 - introduce platform specific way to synchronize sampling Noises can be introduced when LCD signals are being driven, some platforms provide a signal to assist the synchronization of this sampling procedure.

(As in: almost every spi_master driver I see starts out with its version of this bug. Sigh.) It just re-emphasizes that the setup() method may be called for one device while a transfer is active on another ... which means that most driver implementations shouldn't touch any registers.
