hwmon: Add support for Amphenol ChipCap 2 The Amphenol ChipCap 2 is a capacitive polymer humidity and temperature sensor with an integrated EEPROM and minimum/maximum humidity alarms. All device variants offer an I2C interface and depending on the part number, two different output modes: - CC2D: digital output - CC2A: analog (PDM) output This driver adds support for the digital variant (CC2D part numbers), which includes the following part numbers: - non-sleep measurement mode (CC2D23, CC2D25, CC2D33, CC2D35) - sleep measurement mode (CC2D23S, CC2D25S, CC2D33S, CC2D35S) The Chipcap 2 EEPROM can be accessed to configure a series of parameters like the minimum/maximum humidity alarm threshold and hysteresis. The EEPROM is only accessible in the command window after a power-on reset. The default window lasts 10 ms if no Start_CM command is sent. After the command window is finished (either after the mentioned timeout of after a Start_NOM command is sent), the device enters the normal operation mode and makes a first measurement automatically. Unfortunately, the device does not provide any hardware or software reset and therefore the driver must trigger power cycles to enter the command mode. A dedicated, external regulator is required for that. This driver keeps the device off until a measurement or access to the EEPROM is required, making use of the first automatic measurement to avoid different code paths for sleep and non-sleep devices. The minimum and maximum humidity alarms are configured with two registers per alarm: one stores the alarm threshold and the other one keeps the value that turns off the alarm. The alarm signals are only updated when a measurement is carried out.

Description
-----------
This driver implements support for the Amphenol ChipCap 2, a humidity and
temperature chip family. Temperature is measured in milli degrees celsius,
relative humidity is expressed as a per cent mille. The measurement ranges
are the following:
- Relative humidity: 0 to 100000 pcm (14-bit resolution)
- Temperature: -40000 to +125000 m°C (14-bit resolution)
The device communicates with the I2C protocol and uses the I2C address 0x28
by default.
Depending on the hardware configuration, up to two humidity alarms to control
minimum and maximum values are provided. Their thresholds and hystersis can be
configured via sysfs.
Thresholds and hysteris must be provided as a per cent mille. These values
might be truncated to match the 14-bit device resolution (6.1 pcm/LSB)
Known Issues
------------
The driver does not support I2C address and command window length modification.
sysfs-Interface

The following list includes the sysfs attributes that the driver always provides,
their permissions and a short description:

=============================== ======= ========================================
humidity1_min: RW humidity low limit. Measurements under
this limit trigger a humidity low alarm
