The patch disables the interrupt handler on shutdown.

One of our customers reported a bug caused by input events being generated
during shutdown (for example if the user was touching the device whilst it
was turning off), which was solved by putting in this change.

However, now you've drawn my attention to it again, it seems to me that
probably a better thing for us to be doing would be to power off the
touchscreen controller here, and let the interrupt disable be handled by
core code - do you agree?
