Also I haven't seen a response as to why this can't be handled by the
GPIO driver. Adding Linus Walleij, perhaps he knows a more definitive
answer.

Linus, the issue here is that the pinctrl properties for this chip are
supposed to pinmux the pendown GPIO for this chip. I was under the
impression that this should be handled by the GPIO controller itself, so
that when gpio_request() was called on a pin it would be the GPIO
controller driver's responsibility to pinmux it appropriately.

Any reason why these can't be specified per axis? From my experience
with this chip it can make sense to use different values for the
different axes. Well, perhaps X and Y axes can share one fuzz factor,
but the Z axis is sometimes different.

You also modify the driver to ignore the X and Z axes fuzz factor even
for platform data where specifying all three separately was explicitly
allowed. Have you verified that this doesn't cause any regressions?
