Greg Kroah-Hartman 7c0bc65c84 First set of new device support, features and cleanups for IIO in the 4.21 cycle
Along with the headline feature of 5 new drivers, we have the
 substantial addition of auxilliary sensor support on the lsm6sdx
 parts for ST.  There has also been a good set of staging cleanup
 in this period with more underway.
 
 An ever increasing number of devices supported with just a new
 ID which is a good sign that at least some manufacturers are
 continuing to stabilise their interfaces.
 
 New device support,
 * ad7124
   - New driver supporting Analog Devices' ad7124-4 and ad7124-8 parts
     with the inevitable DT binding.
 * ad7949
   - New driver supporting Analog Devices' ad7949, AD7682 and AD7689 ADCs.
 * rm3100
   - New driver supporting PNIs RM3100 magnometer with bindings and
     vendor prefix.
 * ti-dac7311
   - New driver supporting DAC7311, DAC6311 and DAC5311 TI DACs, with
     DT bindings.
 * vcnl5035
   - New driver supporting the light sensor part of the VCNL4035, with
     DT bindings
 
 Features,
 * bindings
   - Add a generic ADC channel binding as we keep reinventing this
     wheel.
 * adc128s052
   - Add IDs for additional pin compatible parts.
   - Add APCI ID seen on E3940 UP squared boards.
 * ad_sigma_delta
   - Allow for custom data register overiding default.
 * kxcjk1013
   - Add KIOX0009 ACPI ID as seen on the Acer One 10.
 * lsm6dsx
   - Rework leading to...
   - External sensor support using the built in I2C master.
   - Initial support for a slave lis2mdl magnetometer.
 * meson-saradc
   - Add temperature sensor support and bindings.
 * st_magn
   - New ID for lsm9dsl_magn with bindings
   - New ID for lis3de accelerometer
 * tpl0102
   - Add supprot for IIO_AVAIL_RANGE to report the range available
     from this device to userspace and in kernel users.
 
 Cleanups and minor fixes
 * tools
   - Allow outside specification of CFLAGS
 * ad2s90
   - Handle and spi_read error.
   - Handle spi_setup failure
   - Drop a pointless assignment.
   - Prevent a potentail race by moving device registration to after
     all other setup.
   - Add missing scale attribute.
   - Add a sanity check on channel type before trying to read it.
 * ad2s1210
   - Move to modern gpio descriptors.
   - Drop a gpioin flag which made no sense as far as we can tell.
   - Add dt table (bindings doc to follow when this is ready for
     moving out of staging).
 * ad5933
   - Drop camel-case naming of ext_clk_hz.
   - White space fixes.
 * ad7150
   - Local variable to shorten overly long line.
   - Alignment and line break fixes.
 * ad7280a
   - Handle an error path that was previously ignored.
   - Use crc8.h to build the crc table replacing custom code.
   - Avoid unecessary cast.
   - Power down the device if an error happens in probe
   - Use devm routines to simplify probe and remove.
 * ad7606
   - Alignment fixes.
 * ad7780
   - This worked as long as by coincidence an uninitialized value
     was 0.  Lets not rely on that.
   - Ensure gain update is only used with the ad778x chips that
     actually support it.
   - Tidy up pattern mask generation.
   - Read regulator when scale is requested (which should be infrequent)
     as it might have changed from initialization.
 * ad7816
   - Move to modern gpio descriptors
   - Don't use a busy_pin for ad7818 as there isn't one.
   - Ensure RD/WR and CONVST pins are outputs (previously they
     were brought up as inputs which doesn't seem to make any sense)
   - DT id table.
 * adc128s052
   - SPDX
 * adt7316
   - Alignment fix.
   - Fix data reading.  When using I2C the driver never actually
     used the value read.  This has been broken a very long time
     hence no rush to fix it now + the driver is undergoing a lot
     of cleanup.
   - Sanity check that the i2c read didn't fail to actually read
     anything.
 * dpot-dac
   - Mark a switch full through with slightly different text so that
     gcc doesn't warn on it.
 * gyro-adc
   - Fix a wrong file in the MAINTAINERS entry and add binding doc to the
     listed files.

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.
