Tom Levens 5d9ca430ea hwmon: (ltc2990) support all measurement modes
Updated version of the ltc2990 driver which supports all measurement
modes (current, voltage, temperature) available in the chip.

If devicetree is used, the mode must be specified with the property
"lltc,meas-mode". The format and possible values of the property are
described in the binding.

If devicetree is not used, the mode of the chip will not be configured.
Unless the chip is configured by another source, only the internal
temperature and supply voltage will be measured.

Kernel driver ltc2990
=====================
Supported chips:
* Linear Technology LTC2990
Prefix: 'ltc2990'

Description
-----------
LTC2990 is a Quad I2C Voltage, Current and Temperature Monitor.
The chip's inputs can measure 4 voltages, or two inputs together (1+2 and 3+4)
can be combined to measure a differential voltage, which is typically used to
measure current through a series resistor, or a temperature with an external
diode.
Usage Notes
-----------
This driver does not probe for PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate
devices explicitly.
Sysfs attributes
----------------
in0_input Voltage at Vcc pin in millivolt (range 2.5V to 5V)
temp1_input Internal chip temperature in millidegrees Celcius
A subset of the following attributes are visible, depending on the measurement
mode of the chip.
in[1-4]_input Voltage at V[1-4] pin in millivolt
temp2_input External temperature sensor TR1 in millidegrees Celcius
temp3_input External temperature sensor TR2 in millidegrees Celcius
curr1_input Current in mA across V1-V2 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor
curr2_input Current in mA across V3-V4 assuming a 1mOhm sense resistor
The "curr*_input" measurements actually report the voltage drop across the
input pins in microvolts. This is equivalent to the current through a 1mOhm
sense resistor. Divide the reported value by the actual sense resistor value
in mOhm to get the actual value.
