[PATCH 1/2] Input: tsc2007 - Disable irq when the irq thread is handling data

From: Feng Tang
Date: Tue Nov 29 2011 - 02:48:42 EST


The TSC2007 data sheet say in some case the HW may fire some false
interrrupt, which I also met during integrating one TSC2007 device.
Most of the tsc2007 platforms including ours are using a gpio line as
tsc2007's irq line, so calling disable_irq_nosync() to actually
prevent the gpio controller from firing IRQ for tsc2007 in such case.
