hmm, while it largely works (generally, as well as the touchpad) the keyboard 
seems to have some problem on rk3288-pinky, it didn't have before with v1 + 
the two patches on top that are now folded into this v2.

Doing an evtest /dev/input/event0 does not result in key events, now after 
some keypresses I got a
[   48.352023] cros-ec-spi spi0.0: EC failed to respond in time
[   48.357695] cros-ec-spi spi0.0: Error transferring EC message -110
[   48.363884] cros-ec-spi spi0.0: failed to get keyboard state: -110
[  226.478588] cros-ec-spi spi0.0: Error transferring EC message -11
[  226.484690] cros-ec-spi spi0.0: failed to get keyboard state: -11

a (regular) reboot seems to result in a working keyboard, while a 
poweroff+poweron via dut-control brings me again back to a non-working 
keyboard.


in my very first try it started similarly non-working but after some time 
started magically working again, but now in subsequent tries I always get the 
spi error + working keyboard after a reboot.


Strangely this really seems to be limited to the keyboard, touchpad works 
flawlessly it seems.
