What is the difference between this version and the version you posted a
couple of days ago?

A few high level comments/questions:

- is this for a different chip that what is handled by the Goodix driver
  that we already have in the kernel?

- you should be using standard touchscreen bindings described in
  Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/touchscreen/touchscreen.txt

- please use gpiod API without gpio fallbacks: you are submitting the
  driver for inclusion into mainline that does have gpiod API and for
  mainline it does not make sense to use fallbacks.

- similarly drop other compat stuff for older kernels

- please drop Android stiff (EARLY_SUSPEND, ets).

- use generic device properties (device_property_read_*()) instead of
  OF-specific variants.

- use get_unaligned_*() API to convert data on wire to CPU format
  instead of doing the same by hand.

- use dev_err(), dev_dbg(), etc for logging.

Thanks.
