There is a merge commit in here to pull in regmap support for repeatedly
reading the same register (to read out FIFOs). Used by the adxl372 driver.
This will find uses elsewhere once we tidy up various drivers that are
effectively doing this and relying on not enabling regcache.
New device support
* Analog devices ADXL372 accelerometer
- new driver for this accelerometer including fifo and and interrupt support.
Follow up patches enforce trigger validation, add sampling frequency
control and filter bandwidth control. A later series added i2c support
to the existing SPI support.
* ST lsm6dsx
- rework and add support fo the LSM6DSO 6 axis mems sensor.
* Linear LTC 1660 DAC
- new driver supporting the LTC 1660 and LTC 1665 SPI DACs.
* Microchip mcp3911 ADC.
- new driver for this integrated analog front end and ADC.
* Qualcomm SPMI PMIC5 adc driver
- using the spmi framework, new driver and bindings for this ADC.
Follow up patch adds some missing channels.
Features
* ad5758
- support hard reset using a gpio (if provided).
* mpu6050
- Regulator support
* qcom-spmi-adc5
- Sanity check the channel numbers provided by DT to make sure the
driver actually knows about them.
* sc27xx
- give raw data for channel 20 as it's used on all known boards for
the headset which needs a custom converstion function. If it turns
out someone builds a board where this isn't true we will deal with it
when it happens.
- add ADC scale calibration.
* tsl2772
- support device tree binding to set the proximity led settings.
- regulator supprot.
- binding for apds9930 - trivial addition as register compatible with tsl2772.
Cleanups / Minor fixes
* adxl345
- supress a static checker warning but explicitly checking if the id
object is null.
* bh1750
- avoid CONFIG_PM_SLEEP checks.
- SPDX.
* bme680
- spelling mistake
- use clamp rather than open coding.
- white space and other similar fixes.
- rename MSK to MASK for clarifty and use GENMASK to specify them.
- use the FIELD_GET macro rather than a very odd accessor of dividing by
16 to get the shift.
- rework to share handing for oversampling of the various channels in a
unified way.
- check explicitly for val2 in write_raw function to ensure it is 0.
- drop some field defines that don't add anything.
* dpot-adc
- SPDX
* envelope detector
- SPDX
* isl29501
- fix an ancient compiler warning mostly because it results in much
nicer code.
* max30102
- mark switch fall throughs.

this is intended.

This directory attempts to document the ABI between the Linux kernel and userspace, and the relative stability of these interfaces. Due to the everchanging nature of Linux, and the differing maturity levels, these interfaces should be used by userspace programs in different ways. We have four different levels of ABI stability, as shown by the four different subdirectories in this location. Interfaces may change levels of stability according to the rules described below. The different levels of stability are: stable/ This directory documents the interfaces that the developer has defined to be stable. Userspace programs are free to use these interfaces with no restrictions, and backward compatibility for them will be guaranteed for at least 2 years. Most interfaces (like syscalls) are expected to never change and always be available. testing/ This directory documents interfaces that are felt to be stable, as the main development of this interface has been completed. The interface can be changed to add new features, but the current interface will not break by doing this, unless grave errors or security problems are found in them. Userspace programs can start to rely on these interfaces, but they must be aware of changes that can occur before these interfaces move to be marked stable. Programs that use these interfaces are strongly encouraged to add their name to the description of these interfaces, so that the kernel developers can easily notify them if any changes occur (see the description of the layout of the files below for details on how to do this.) obsolete/ This directory documents interfaces that are still remaining in the kernel, but are marked to be removed at some later point in time. The description of the interface will document the reason why it is obsolete and when it can be expected to be removed. removed/ This directory contains a list of the old interfaces that have been removed from the kernel. Every file in these directories will contain the following information: What: Short description of the interface Date: Date created KernelVersion: Kernel version this feature first showed up in. Contact: Primary contact for this interface (may be a mailing list) Description: Long description of the interface and how to use it. Users: All users of this interface who wish to be notified when it changes. This is very important for interfaces in the "testing" stage, so that kernel developers can work with userspace developers to ensure that things do not break in ways that are unacceptable. It is also important to get feedback for these interfaces to make sure they are working in a proper way and do not need to be changed further. How things move between levels: Interfaces in stable may move to obsolete, as long as the proper notification is given. Interfaces may be removed from obsolete and the kernel as long as the documented amount of time has gone by. Interfaces in the testing state can move to the stable state when the developers feel they are finished. They cannot be removed from the kernel tree without going through the obsolete state first. It's up to the developer to place their interfaces in the category they wish for it to start out in. Notable bits of non-ABI, which should not under any circumstances be considered stable: - Kconfig. Userspace should not rely on the presence or absence of any particular Kconfig symbol, in /proc/config.gz, in the copy of .config commonly installed to /boot, or in any invocation of the kernel build process. - Kernel-internal symbols. Do not rely on the presence, absence, location, or type of any kernel symbol, either in System.map files or the kernel binary itself. See Documentation/process/stable-api-nonsense.rst.
