The i.MX6UL internal touchscreen controller contains an option to
average upon samples. This feature reduces noise from the produced
touch locations.

This patch introduces a new device tree optional property for this
feature. It provides control over the amount of averaged samples per
touch event.

The property was inspired by a similar property on the
"brcm,iproc-touchscreen" binding.

Either this needs a vendor prefix or should be documented as a generic 
property. In the latter case, you should use actual number of samples 
(1-32) for the values.

In the term "generic property", do you mean to document it on 
bindings/input/touchscreen/touchscreen.txt ?
If so, should I add the "touchscreen-" prefix like all the other 
properties in that file?

Grepping bindings/input/touchscreen/, I found two other device drivers 
that implement a
similar property - "ti-tsc-adc" and "brcm,iproc-touchscreen" (The 
latter, BTW, uses a non
vendor prefixed property name).

Do we want to move from per-vendor properties to a generic one?
If we do, should we deprecate the existing vendor specific properties?

Unfortunately, the brcm one doesn't look directly usable.

No. Those are set already. I just don't want to get more vendor properties.
