From 55fc280e951ab2b39f3dcb640edc1b1eebc6d173 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Rob Herring (Arm)" Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 14:43:51 -0500 Subject: Input: tsc2007 - read "ti,poll-period" as u32 The "ti,poll-period" property is documented as a normal uint32 cell. The driver used a u64 helper, which makes the helper type disagree with the schema even though the stored value is still small. Read "ti,poll-period" with the u32 helper matching the documented DT cell size.
