[PATCH] Input: tca8418 - enable interrupt after it has been requested

From: Damien Riegel
Date: Mon Oct 16 2017 - 17:57:26 EST


Currently, enabling keypad interrupts is one of the first operations
done on the keypad, even before the interrupt is requested, so there is
a small time window where the keypad can fire interrupts but the driver
is not yet ready to handle them. It's fine for level interrupts because
they will be handled anyway, but not so much for edge ones.

This commit modifies and moves the function in charge of configuring the
keypad. Enabling interrupts is now the last thing done on the keypad,
and after the interrupt has been requested by the driver.

Writing to the config register was also used to determine if the device
was indeed present on the bus or not, this has been replaced by reading
the lock/event count register to keep the same functionality.

I originally made this patch on top of:

800e3b9a6801 Input: drop owner assignment from i2c_driver

But I only compile-tested it on top of input/next. The issue was spotted
thanks to a bootloader that left the keypad configured, only with
interrupts disabled. So any button pressed or released during Linux's
boot was queued and triggered an interrupt as soon as the driver enabled
interrupts. It would really be appreciated if someone could give this
patch a try.
