Greg Kroah-Hartman 59142f808a First round of new devices, features and cleanups for IIO in the 4.17 cycle.
Outside of IIO
 * Strongly typed 64bit int_sqrt function needed by the mlx90632
 
 New device support
 * adc081s
   - New driver supporting adc081s, adc101s and adc121s TI ADCs.
 * ad5272
   - New driver supproting the ad5272 and ad5274 ADI digital potentiometers
     with DT bindings.
 * axp20x_adc
   - support the AXP813 ADC - includes rework patches to prepare for this.
 * mlx90632
   - New driver with dt bindings for this IR temperature sensor.
 
 Features
 * axp20x_adc
   - Add DT bindings and probing.
 * dht11
   - The sensor has a wider range than advertised in the datasheet - support it.
 * st_lsm6dsx
   - Add hardware timestamp su9pport.
 
 Cleanups
 * ABI docs
   - Update email contact for Matt Ranostay
 * SPDX changes
   - Matt Ranostay has moved his drivers over to SPDX.  Currently we are making
     this an author choice in IIO.
 * ad7192
   - Disable burnout current on misconfiguration.  No actually effect as
     they simply won't work otherwise.
 * ad7476
   - Drop a license definition that was replicating information in SPDX tag.
 * ade7758
   - Expand buf_lock to cover both buffer and state protection allowing
     unintented uses of mlock in the core to be removed.
 * ade7759
   - Align parameters to opening parenthesis.
 * at91_adc
   - Depend on sysfs instead of selecting it - for try wide consistency.
 * ccs811
   - trivial naming type for a define.
 * ep93xx
   - Drop a redundant return as a result checking platform_get_resource.
 * hts221
   - Regmap conversion which simplifies the driver somewhat.
   - Clean up some restricted endian cast warnings.
   - Drop a trailing whitespace from a comment
   - Drop an unnecessary get_unaligned by changing to the right 16bit data type.
 * ms5611
   - Fix coding style in the probe function (whitespace)
 * st_accel
   - Use strlcpy instead of strncpy to avoid potentially truncating a string.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
