> > +Basic Flow:
> > +
> > +- Touch IC asserts the interrupt indicating that it has an interrupt to send to HOST.
> > + THC Sequencer issues a READ request over the I2C bus. The HIDI2C device returns the
> > + first 2 bytes from the HIDI2C device which contains the length of the received data.
> > +- THC Sequencer continues the Read operation as per the size of data indicated in the
> > + length field.
> > +- THC DMA engine begins fetching data from the THC Sequencer and writes to host memory
> > + at PRD entry 0 for the current CB PRD table entry. THC writes 2Bytes for length field
> > + plus the remaining data to RxDMA buffer. This process continues until the THC Sequencer
> > + signals all data has been read or the THC DMA Read Engine reaches the end of it's last
> > + PRD entry (or both).
> > +- THC Sequencer enters End-of-Input Report Processing.
> > +- If the device has no more input reports to send to the host, it de-asserts the interrupt
> > + line. For any additional input reports, device keeps the interrupt line asserted and
> > + steps 1 through 4 in the flow are repeated.
> > +
> > +THC Sequencer End of Input Report Processing:
> > +
> > +- THC DMA engine increments the read pointer of the Read PRD CB, sets EOF interrupt status
> > + in RxDMA 2 register (THC_M_PRT_READ_DMA_INT_STS_2).
> > +- If THC EOF interrupt is enabled by the driver in the control register
> > + (THC_M_PRT_READ_DMA_CNTRL_2), generates interrupt to software.
> > +
> > +Sequence of steps to read data from RX DMA buffer:
> > +
> > +- THC QuickI2C driver checks CB write Ptr and CB read Ptr to identify if any data frame in DMA
> > + circular buffers.
> > +- THC QuickI2C driver gets first unprocessed PRD table.
> > +- THC QuickI2C driver scans all PRD entries in this PRD table to calculate the total frame size.
> > +- THC QuickI2C driver copies all frame data out.
> > +- THC QuickI2C driver call hid_input_report to send the input report content to HID core, which
> > + includes Report ID + Report Data Content (remove the length field from the original report
> > + data).
> > +- THC QuickI2C driver updates write Ptr.
> > +
> > +5.3 Output Report Data Flow
> > +---------------------------
> > +
> > +Generic Output Report Flow:
> > +
> > +- HID core call THC QuickI2C raw_request callback.
> > +- THC QuickI2C uses PIO or TXDMA to write a SET_REPORT request to TIC's command register. Report
> > + type in SET_REPORT should be set to Output.
> > +- THC QuickI2C programs TxDMA buffer with TX Data to be written to TIC's data register. The first
