The IP is awfully similar to the A31's, which already has a driver
(drivers/input/touchscreen/sun4i-ts.c).

There's no reason to add a new one here.

Thanks,
Maxime

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/.
2. Control Register are quite different.
3. This IP uses AUDIO PLL (PLL2) as its clock!
