Chuhong Yuan 3e4dabacf9 counter/ftm-quaddec: Use device-managed registration API
Make use of devm_counter_register.
Then we can remove redundant unregistration API
usage to make code simpler.

Linus Torvalds e786741ff1 Staging / IIO driver update for 5.3-rc1
Here is the big Staging and IIO driver update for 5.3-rc1.
 
 Lots of new IIO drivers are in here, along with loads of tiny staging
 driver cleanups and fixes.  Overall we almost break even with the same
 lines added as removed.
 
 Full details are in the shortlog, they are too large to list here.
 
 All of these changes have been in linux-next for a while with no
 reported issues.

Greg Kroah-Hartman c55cc97a25 Second set of IIO device support, features, cleanups and minor fixes for 5.3.
A few bits for the counters subsystem mixed in here as well.
 There are some late breaking fixes as well, which aren't so urgent
 they can't wait for the merge window.
 
 New Device Support
 * adf4371
   - New driver + bindings.
   - Support the adf4372 PLL. Mostly ID and bindings.
 * ad8366 (note includes rework of driver needed to allow support for these).
   - Support the ADL5240 variable gain amplifier (VGA).
   - Support the ADA4961 digital gain amplifier (DGA).
 * dps310
   - New driver, in several parts from different authors for this temp
     and pressure sensor.
   - Includes errata workaround for a temperature reading issue.
 * stk3310
   - Support the stk3335, mostly ID.
 
 Features and cleanups
 * core
   - drop error handling on debugfs registration.
   - harden by making sure we don't overrun iio_chan_info_postfix.
 * docs
   - convert remaining docs to rst. At somepoint we'll fit these few
     into the main IIO docs.
   - improve sampling_frequency_available docs but explaining the
     range form.
 * ad_sigma_delta
   - Drop a pointless goto.
 * ad2s1210
   - Drop pointless platform data null check seeing as we don't actually
     use platform data anymore.
 * ad7124
   - Relax limitation on channel numbers to allow pseudo different channels.
   - Support control of whether the input is buffered via DT.
   - Use dynamic allocation for channel configuration to make it easier
     to support new devices.
   - YAML binding conversion.
 * ad7150
   - Comment tidy up.
   - Consistent and simple if (ret) handling of i2c errors.
   - FIELD_GET and GENMASK.
   - Ternary rather than !!(condition) for readability.
   - Use macros to avoid repetition of channel definitions.
 * ad7606
   - Add software channel config (rather that pin controlled)
   - Refactor to simplify addition of new part in future.
 * ad7746
   - of_deivce_id table.
 * ad7780
   - MAINTAINERS entry
   - YAML DT bindings.
 * ad8366
   - Stop using core mlock in favour of well scoped local lock.
   - SPDX + copyright date update.
 * ad9834
   - of_device_id table
 * adf4371

     minimum supported voltage.
 * adis16203

   - YAML DT binding conversion.
   - Cleanup use of buffer callback functions (precursor to core rework).
 * bh1710

 * dht11
   - Mote to newer GPIO consumer interface.
 * kxcjk-1013.c
   - Add binding for sensor in display of some ultrabooks after userspace
     tools updated for it not be a problem to report two similar sensors.
 * imx7d
   - drop unused variables.
   - white space
   - define instead of variable for clock frequency that is fixed.
   - drop pointless error message.
 * messon_saradc
   - SPDX
 * sps30
   - MAINTAINERS entry
   - YAML binding conversion.
 * st_accel
   - Tidy up ordering in various buffer related callbacks. This is
     part of a long running effort to simplify the core code.
 * stm32-dfsdm:
   - Manage the resolution cleanly in triggerd modes.
   - Add fast mode support which allows more flexible filter choices.
   - Add a comment on the reason for a 16 bit record when technically
     not 'required'.
 * st_lsm6dsx
   - Embed device name in the sensor_settings struct as i3c doesn't
     have a convenient name field to use for this.
 * xilinx-adc
   - Relax constraints on supported platforms to reflect that this
     can used with FPGAs on PCIe cards and hence many architectures.

 Fixes
 * tools
   - fix incorrect handling of 32 bit channels.
 * sca3000
   - Potential endian bug that is unlikely to bite anyone (be64 host
     seems unlikely for this old part).
 * stm32-adc
   - Add vdda-supply. On some boards it needs to be turned on to supply
     the ADC.  DT bindings included.
 * stm32-dfsdm
   - Fix output resolution to work with filter orders other than 3.
   - Fix output datatype as it's signed and previously claimed not to be.

William Breathitt Gray f1d8a071d4 counter: 104-quad-8: Add Generic Counter interface support
This patch adds support for the Generic Counter interface to the
104-QUAD-8 driver. The existing 104-QUAD-8 device interface should not
be affected by this patch; all changes are intended as supplemental
additions as perceived by the user.

Generic Counter Counts are created for the eight quadrature channel
counts, as well as their respective quadrature A and B Signals (which
are associated via respective Synapse structures) and respective index
Signals.

The new Generic Counter interface sysfs attributes are intended to
expose the same functionality and data available via the existing
104-QUAD-8 IIO device interface; the Generic Counter interface serves
to provide the respective functionality and data in a standard way
expected of counter devices.

William Breathitt Gray 0040a390d2 counter: Introduce the Generic Counter interface
This patch introduces the Generic Counter interface for supporting
counter devices.

In the context of the Generic Counter interface, a counter is defined as
a device that reports one or more "counts" based on the state changes of
one or more "signals" as evaluated by a defined "count function."

Driver callbacks should be provided to communicate with the device: to
read and write various Signals and Counts, and to set and get the
"action mode" and "count function" for various Synapses and Counts
respectively.

To support a counter device, a driver must first allocate the available
Counter Signals via counter_signal structures. These Signals should
be stored as an array and set to the signals array member of an
allocated counter_device structure before the Counter is registered to
the system.

Counter Counts may be allocated via counter_count structures, and
respective Counter Signal associations (Synapses) made via
counter_synapse structures. Associated counter_synapse structures are
stored as an array and set to the the synapses array member of the
respective counter_count structure. These counter_count structures are
set to the counts array member of an allocated counter_device structure
before the Counter is registered to the system.

A counter device is registered to the system by passing the respective
initialized counter_device structure to the counter_register function;
similarly, the counter_unregister function unregisters the respective
Counter. The devm_counter_register and devm_counter_unregister functions
serve as device memory-managed versions of the counter_register and
counter_unregister functions respectively.
