The irq_to_gpio() is old, most platforms use GENERIC_GPIO framework and don't support this API anymore. The i.MX6q sabrelite platform equips an egalax touchscreen controller, and this platform already transfered to GENERIC_GPIO framework, to support this driver, we use a more generic way to get gpio.
Unfortunately this does break the driver for platforms that do still support irq_to_gpio and have not transitioned to device tree (yet?). It looks like the API suffered from premature deletion... I really do not want to add a new platform data structure with only gpio in it, is there a better way to detect if irq_to_gpio() (even if only a stub) is available? Thanks. -- Dmitry
