Nicolin Chen 5c090abf94 hwmon: (ina3221) Add averaging mode support
The CONFIG register has a 3-bit averaging mode field for users
to setup the number of samples that are collected and averaged
together. This is very useful to filter noise from sensor data.

This patch adds a 'samples' sysfs node using hwmon_chip_samples
of hwmon core, and updates wait time calculation by taking this
samples value into account.

Description
-----------
The Texas Instruments INA3221 monitors voltage, current, and power on the high
side of up to three D.C. power supplies. The INA3221 monitors both shunt drop
and supply voltage, with programmable conversion times and averaging, current
and power are calculated host-side from these.
