RE: [PATCH 2/2] Input: elan_i2c - Modify the IAP related functio n for page sizes 128, 512 bytes.

Hi Dmitry:

In this "static int elan_i2c_prepare_fw_update(struct i2c_client *client,
u16 ic_type, u8 iap_version)" function
If IC is old_pattern, it must be modified to iap_version
	-> u16 type = pattern >= 0x01 ? ic_type : iap_version;

Thanks

I split the firmware handling code into a few patches and uploaded it to a
new elan-i2c branch:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dtor/input.git elan-i2c

Please take a look and let me know if I messed it up or not. I will be
looking at the new packet format next.

Thanks.
