[PATCH 0/4] Add support for vibrator motor for TBS A711 Tablet

[PATCH 0/4] Add support for vibrator motor for TBS A711 Tablet

[Ondrej Jirman]

The tablet has a vibrator. Expose it via input subsystem (EV_FF).

Please take a look.

thank you and regards,
  Ondrej Jirman

[PATCH 1/4] dt-bindings: input: gpio-vibrator: Don't require enable-gpios

[Ondrej Jirman]

It is possible to turn the motor on/off just by enabling/disabling
the vcc-supply.

[PATCH 2/4] input: gpio-vibra: Allow to use vcc-supply alone to control the vibrator

[Ondrej Jirman]

Make enable-gpio optional to allow using this driver with
boards that have vibrator connected to a power supply without
intermediate gpio based enable circuitry.

LDO IO1 can also be muxed in as a GPIO iirc, why did you choose the
regulator instead?

According to the specification, LDO needs to be enabled (value 0b11)
to achieve the specified max driving current of 150mA:

  https://megous.com/dl/tmp/92b7d9d94820c3ba.png

Otherwise the chip is probably just using the regular CMOS logic output
(typically limited to around 20-35mA, but not specified in this datasheet),
which would be probably overdriven, if we try to drive the motor with it.

And since we're driving a motor directly, the more the better.

thank you and regards,
	o.

Ok, that works for me then. This is typically the kind of things that
should be in your commit log though, since it's basically the
motivation for doing what you're doing in your patches.
