Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] Fix Goodix touchscreen power leakage for MT8186 boards

These changes are based on the series in [1], which modified the
i2c-hid-of-goodix driver and removed the workaround for a power leakage
issue, so the issue revisits on Mediatek MT8186 boards (Steelix).

The root cause is that the touchscreen can be powered in different ways
depending on the hardware designs, and it's not as easy to come up with
a solution that is both simple and elegant for all the known designs.

To address the issue, I ended up adding a new boolean property for the
driver so that we can control the power up/down sequence depending on
that.

Adding a new property might not be the cleanest approach for this, but
at least the intention would be easy enough to understand, and it
introduces relatively small change to the code and fully preserves the
original control flow.
I hope this is something acceptable, and I'm open to any better
approaches.

Changes in v3:
- In power-down, only skip the GPIO but not the regulator calls if the
flag is set

Changes in v2:
- Use a more accurate property name and with "goodix," prefix.
- Do not change the regulator_enable logic during power-up.

Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] dt-bindings: input: goodix: Add "goodix,no-reset-during-suspend" property

We observed that on Chromebook device Steelix, if Goodix GT7375P
touchscreen is powered in suspend (because, for example, it connects to
an always-on regulator) and with the reset GPIO asserted, it will
introduce about 14mW power leakage.

To address that, we add this property to skip reset during suspend.
If it's set, the driver will stop asserting the reset GPIO during
power-down. Refer to the comments in the driver for details.

Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] HID: i2c-hid: goodix: Add support for "goodix,no-reset-during-suspend" property

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 new
"goodix,no-reset-during-suspend" property in the driver:
- When set to true, the driver does not assert the reset GPIO during
power-down.
Instead, the GPIO will be asserted during power-up to ensure the
touchscreen always has a clean start and consistent behavior after
resuming.
This is for designs with a dedicated always-on regulator.
- When set to false or unset, the driver uses the original control flow
and asserts GPIO and disables regulators normally.
This is for the two-regulator and shared-regulator designs.

Great work; one tiny nit below. If you do not agree with it or have found
precedent that suggests it is OK, feel free to ignore it. Either way:

I don't think curly braces are technically required here, as there is only
one statement within the conditional despite the comments making it appear
otherwise. Maybe this would work too:

/* ... */
if (...)
gpiod_set_value_cansleep(...);

Again however, I do not feel strongly about this.
