I see. In this case I believe that, instead of creating completely
separate driver, we need to abstract bus access from tsc2007 and convert
the driver into tsc200x-core.c core piece and tcs2005.c/tsc2007.c
implementing just bus access methods. Pretty much what was done for
ad714x, adxl34x, ad7879 and other drivers.

I am not sure what this means... If you want to submit parts of platform
code through my tree that should be fine as long as respective
maintainer of given arch is OK with it as well.

Thanks.
