I am using IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING for the 2117A. Is that correct? For
my touchscreen, the IRQ line is low until a touch is detected, so I
assume we want to capure on the rising edge.

I noticed the example uses IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING. If rising is
correct, we should probably update the binding to show an example for
the 2117.

Regarding Dmitry's patch,
Is it a good idea to use msleep in an IRQ? It seems like using the
schedule_delayed_work() call seems like it will get in and get out of
the ISR faster.

If we use msleep and scan again, isn't it possible to starve other processes?

Sven's patches appear to work for me when manually applied on top of
Dmity' and Marek's patches.

Why not just check the value of touch instead of invoking the function
pointer which takes the value of touch in as a parameter?
