That is not only an opinion, it is a matter of fact. TI really dropped
the ball on this one. I thought the patch series was a sign they
finally were going to properly address this issue. Wrong again.

The data sheet for the TI part used to have a reference to an app-note
for the touch controller.

      spruh73f page 1154

      The Pen IRQ can only occur if the correct Pen Ctrl bits are high
      (AFE Pen Ctrl bits 6:5 in the TSC_ADC control register) and if
      the correct ground transistor biasing is set in the StepConfig
      [N] Register. Refer to the application notes for the correct
      settings.

I searched high and low for this application note. Then, the data
sheet got revised.

Thanks,
Richard
