On some ACPI/x86 devices (where we use one of the ACPI IRQ pin access methods) the firmware is buggy, it does not properly reset the controller at boot, and we cannot communicate with it. Normally on ACPI/x86 devices we do not want to reset the controller at probe time since in some cases this causes the controller to loose its configuration and this is loaded into it by the system's firmware. So on these systems we leave the reset_controller_at_probe flag unset, even though we have a access to both the IRQ and reset pins and thus could reset it. In the case of the buggy firmware we have to reset the controller to actually be able to talk to it. This commit adds a special case for this, if the goodix_i2c_test() fails, and we have not reset the controller yet; and we do have a way to reset the controller then retry the i2c-test after resetting the controller. This fixes the driver failing at probe on ACPI/x86 systems with this firmware bug.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
