SoCs from Samsung before Exynos4 had and ADC based Touch screen
and the driver under arch/arm/plat-samsung/adc.c and
drivers/input/touchscreen/s3c2410_ts.c used to work together.

Infact, the interrupt routine and priorities in plat-samsung/adc.c
driver as written keeping the Touchscreen in mind.

After Exynos4, ADC IP remained. But, the touch screen was removed in hardware.

As per suggestion from Doug Anderson, I've implemented IIO based ADC
driver started to support from exynos5250.
