Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.
Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.
GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.
Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)
SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

Regularly, when a new header is created in include/uapi/, the developer
forgets to add it in the corresponding Kbuild file. This error is usually
detected after the release is out.
In fact, all headers under uapi directories should be exported, thus it's
useless to have an exhaustive list.
After this patch, the following files, which were not exported, are now
exported (with make headers_install_all):

Note that I have removed from this list the files which are generated in every
exported directories (like .install or .install.cmd).
Thanks to Julien Floret <julien.floret@6wind.com> for the tip to get all
subdirs with a pure makefile command.
For the record, note that exported files for asm directories are a mix of
files listed by:
- include/uapi/asm-generic/Kbuild.asm;
- arch/<arch>/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild;
- arch/<arch>/include/asm/Kbuild.

Add new channel types support for gravity sensor.
Gravity sensor provides an application-level or physical collection that
identifies a device that measures exclusively the force of Earth's
gravity along any number of axes.

Quadrature encoders, such as rotary encoders and linear encoders, are
devices which are capable of encoding the relative position and
direction of motion of a shaft. This patch introduces several IIO
constants for supporting quadrature encoder counter devices.
IIO_COUNT: Current count (main data provided by the counter device)
IIO_INDEX: Counter device index value

There are air quality sensors that report data back in parts per million
of VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) which are usually indexed from CO2
or another common pollutant.
This patchset adds an IIO_CONCENTRATION type that returns a percentage
of substance because no other channels types fit this use case.
Modifiers for IIO_MOD_CO2 and IIO_MOD_VOC gas types are defined.

After UAPI header file split [1] all user-kernel interfaces were
placed under include/uapi/.
This patch moves IIO user specific API from:
* include/linux/iio/events.h => include/uapi/linux/iio/events.h
* include/linux/types.h => include/uapi/linux/types.h
Now there is no need for nasty tricks to compile userspace programs
(e.g iio_event_monitor). Just installing the kernel headers with
make headers_install command does the job.
