Commit 8dcb7a15a585 ("gpiolib: acpi: Take into account debounce settings")
made the gpiolib-acpi code call gpio_set_debounce_timeout() when requesting
GPIOs.

This in itself is fine, but it also made gpio_set_debounce_timeout()
errors fatal, causing the requesting of the GPIO to fail. This is causing
regressions. E.g. on a HP ElitePad 1000 G2 various _AEI specified GPIO
ACPI event sources specify a debouncy timeout of 20 ms, but the
pinctrl-baytrail.c only supports certain fixed values, the closest
ones being 12 or 24 ms and pinctrl-baytrail.c responds with -EINVAL
when specified a value which is not one of the fixed values.

This is causing the acpi_request_own_gpiod() call to fail for 3
ACPI event sources on the HP ElitePad 1000 G2, which in turn is causing
e.g. the battery charging vs discharging status to never get updated,
even though a charger has been plugged-in or unplugged.

Make gpio_set_debounce_timeout() errors non fatal, warning about the
failure instead, to fix this regression.

Note we should probably also fix various pinctrl drivers to just
pick the first bigger discrete value rather then returning -EINVAL but
this will need to be done on a per driver basis, where as this fix
at least gets us back to where things were before and thus restores
functionality on devices where this was lost due to
gpio_set_debounce_timeout() errors.
Yes, I also think that we need to choose upper debounce instead of rejecting
the settings. And yes, I agree that for now it's not suitable as a fix.

That said,

Thank you.

FYI, I've prepared a patch to choose the upper debounce time for
pintctrl-baytrail . I'll test it when I'm back home tonight and
then submit it upstream.
Ugh, I just noticed that this is still not upstream (not in v5.15-rc2), while this is
a regression fix!

Can we please get this merged and send to Linus ASAP ?

Regards,

Hans
