While Linux uses a different driver, the Ilitek ILI210x/ILI2117/ILI2120/ILI251x touchscreen controller Device Tree binding documentation is very similar. - Drop the fixed reg value, as some controllers use a different address, - Make reset-gpios optional, as it is not always wired.It looks like there are now two drivers for the same hardware, drivers/input/touchscreen/ili210x.c drivers/input/touchscreen/ilitek_ts_i2c.c The ilitek_ts_i2c (newer) seems to be derived from the ilitek example code / driver, while the ili210x was written from scratch as far as I can tell.I'm not so sure they're for the same hardware, but you may know better? https://www.displayvisions.us/fileadmin/html-seiten/eng/pdf/zubehoer/ILITek_TP_Programming_Guide_V1.50.pdf lists only Ilitek parts handled by ilitek_ts_i2c.c.
Ilitek folks said that the new driver is for their "Lego" series controllers, whereas ili210x.c is for older hardware. Thanks. -- Dmitry
