Instead of special casing "if (ts->of)" all over the place why don't you
set up the device structure as:

	if (<configuring_tsc2007_form_dt>)
		ts->get_pendown_state = tsc2007_get_pendown_state_dt;

and be done with it?
I also thought about that, but the existing function does not have any
parameters, while the DT version of get_pendown_state() requires to get
the GPIO passed to it somehow.
You can always have tsc2007_get_pendown_state_platform() wrapping the
call. Or we just go and fix board code.
I used to have a patch which did exactly that but never got around to
submitting it. Essentially what it did was add a void * parameter to the
.get_pendown_state() and .clear_penirq() callbacks, along with a new
.callback_data field that the driver could set. At the same time there
was some code to unify code for boards that merely use a simple GPIO as
pendown.

I'm attaching what I think is the latest version. I no longer have
access to the hardware so I can't test this, but perhaps it can serve as
an example of how this could work. Sorry this isn't in the form of a
proper patch.
