Hi Dmitry, Thanks for your explanation. If I want to abandon this patch, what's step I need to do?

We do not want to return error here, because it will abort probe, and then we will not be able to initiate firmware flash flow so we can attempt to recover the device. If you want to try you can change the ts->iap_mode before trying to register input device, but then you need to be very careful about registering and unregistering it later, after flashing or re-flashing firmware. > > Signed-off-by: Johnny Chuang > --- > drivers/input/touchscreen/elants_i2c.c | 2 +- > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/input/touchscreen/elants_i2c.c > b/drivers/input/touchscreen/elants_i2c.c > index d4ad24e..9c9816f 100644 > --- a/drivers/input/touchscreen/elants_i2c.c > +++ b/drivers/input/touchscreen/elants_i2c.c > @@ -571,7 +571,7 @@ static int elants_i2c_initialize(struct elants_data *ts) > if (error) > ts->iap_mode = ELAN_IAP_RECOVERY; > > - return 0; > + return error; > } > > /* > -- > 2.7.4 > Thanks. -- Dmitry
