In the beginning, commit 18eeef46d359 ("HID: i2c-hid: goodix: Tie the
reset line to true state of the regulator") introduced a change to tie
the reset line of the Goodix touchscreen to the state of the regulator
to fix a power leakage issue in suspend.
After some time, the change was deemed unnecessary and was reverted in
commit 557e05fa9fdd ("HID: i2c-hid: goodix: Stop tying the reset line to
the regulator") due to difficulties in managing regulator notifiers for
designs like Evoker, which provides a second power rail to touchscreen.
However, the revert caused a power regression on another Chromebook
device Steelix in the field, which has a dedicated always-on regulator
for touchscreen and was covered by the workaround in the first commit.
To address both cases, this patch adds the support for the
`powered-in-suspend` property in the driver that allows the driver to
determine whether the touchscreen is still powered in suspend, and
handle the reset GPIO accordingly as below:
- When set to true, the driver does not assert the reset GPIO in power
down. To ensure a clean start and the consistent behavior, it does the
assertion in power up instead.
This is for designs with a dedicated always-on regulator.
- When set to false, the driver uses the original control flow and
asserts GPIO and disable regulators normally.
This is for the two-regulator and shared-regulator designs.

Please let me know in case I have misunderstood, but I don't see a need
to change the regulator_enable/disable() logic if this property is set.
If the regulators are truly always-on, the regulator core already knows
what to do and we should not duplicate that logic here.
Based on the alleged silicon erratum discussed in patch [1/2], it seems
we only want to control the behavior of the reset GPIO. Therefore, only
the calls to gpiod_set_value_cansleep() should be affected and the name
of the property updated to reflect what it's actually doing.

This would be OK w/ me.

Your understanding is totally right, let me restore that in the next
revision. Thanks!

I privately reviewed earlier versions of this patch, so it's
unsurprising that I have no comments. Assuming that the DT folks don't
have any objections to the bindings change, this LGTM.
