From b3aef78f76959b94e6df54f80040669a11cc4897 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Laxman Dewangan Date: Tue, 19 Apr 2016 12:52:01 +0530 Subject: thermal: generic-adc: Add ADC based thermal sensor driver In some of platform, thermal sensors like NCT thermistors are connected to the one of ADC channel. The temperature is read by reading the voltage across the sensor resistance via ADC. Lookup table for ADC read value to temperature is referred to get temperature. ADC is read via IIO framework. Add support for thermal sensor driver which read the voltage across sensor resistance from ADC through IIO framework.
