I'd factor out code suitable for polling from mpr_touchkey_interrupt()
and then do

static irqreturn_t mpr_touchkey_interrupt(...)
{
	mpr_touchkey_report(...);
	return IRQ_HANDLED;
}

Yes.

We can either trust DT not to have the property for polled case, or add
more checks. I think we should simply trust DT. Even if it is wrong it
will not cause any issues.

I think in this particular case checkpatch is full of it.

Thanks.


Input: add support for polling to input devices

From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>

Separating "normal" and "polled" input devices was a mistake, as often we want
to allow the very same device work on both interrupt-driven and polled mode,
depending on the board on which the device is used.

This introduces new APIs:

- input_setup_polling
- input_set_poll_interval
- input_set_min_poll_interval
- input_set_max_poll_interval

These new APIs allow switching an input device into polled mode with sysfs
attributes matching drivers using input_polled_dev APIs that will be eventually
removed.
