?The reason for a dedicate driver is:
?1. This IP have only thermal function, so it's not suitable to use a
?driver at drivers/input/touchscreen/.
That's not a problem, and it's being worked on [1].

?2. Control Register are quite different.
That's not a problem either, there's just a bit that you don't need to
set in the control 1 register, and that's pretty much it. It doesn't
justify a whole new driver.

?3. This IP uses AUDIO PLL (PLL2) as its clock!
It's listed as the input, but all the rest of the documentation refers
only to 24MHz, which seems to indicate that it's only running on the
oscillator, which would make much more sense.

Thanks,
Maxime

Thanks.

However, sun8iw3/5 ths is not even a GPADC... It's a specified IP, only used as an ADC suitable for temperature sensor.
