The WAKE-GPIO was never supported and I'm not sure whether anyone
actually needs it. I think we could ignore this case until anyone would
really need and could test it.

We could add a new MXT1386 DT compatible and then do:

static void mxt_wake(struct mxt_data *data)
{
        struct i2c_client *client = data->client;
        struct device *dev = &data->client->dev;
        union i2c_smbus_data dummy;

        if (!of_device_is_compatible(dev, "atmel,mXT1386"))
                return;

        /* TODO: add WAKE-GPIO support */

        i2c_smbus_xfer(client->adapter, client->addr,
                        0, I2C_SMBUS_READ, 0, I2C_SMBUS_BYTE,
                        &dummy);

        msleep(MXT_WAKEUP_TIME);
}

Jiada, will you be able to re-work this patch? Please note that the new
"atmel,mXT1386" DT compatible needs to be added into the
atmel,maxtouch.txt binding.
