[PATCH v1] dt-bindings: touchscreen: add touchscreen-read-duration-us and touchscreen-settling-time-us properties

[Oleksij Rempel <o.rempel@pengutronix.de>]

According to the TI application bulletin [1] we deal with two generic
mechanisms which would affect the precision of provided input events:

|TOUCH SCREEN SETTLING TIME
|
|When the touch  panel is pressed or touched, there are
|two mechanisms that will affect the voltage level at the contact point of
|the touch panel. These two mechanisms will cause the voltage across the
|touch panel to “ring” (oscillate), and then slowly settle (decay)
|down to a stable DC value.
|
|The two mechanisms are:
| 1) Mechanical bouncing caused by vibration of the top layer sheet  of
|    the touch  panel  when  the  panel  is  pressed.
|
| 2) Electrical  ringing  due  to  parasitic  capacitance  between the top
|    and bottom layer sheets of the touch panel and at the  input  of  ADS7843
|    that  causes  the  voltage  to  “ring”(oscillate).

Since both of this mechanisms are board specific and reflect the
mechanical, and electrical properties of end product, it is better to
provide a generic properties to address them.

The touchscreen-read-duration-us property should address 1. mechanism.
This effect can be triggered by device specific design. The duration ma be
dependent on the use case of the end device. For example a touch where
writing is required may have other timing requirements as the device
where only "buttons" should be pressed.

The touchscreen-settling-time-us property should address 2. mechanism
where the size and construction of touch screen plates affect the parasitic
capacitance and time needed between enabling power supply for the
plates, and actual usable voltage level to detect the position of touch event.
