Greg Kroah-Hartman 4b55dce8b0 1st round of IIO new device support, features and cleanups in the 4.20 cycle.
There is a merge commit in here to pull in regmap support for repeatedly
 reading the same register (to read out FIFOs).  Used by the adxl372 driver.
 This will find uses elsewhere once we tidy up various drivers that are
 effectively doing this and relying on not enabling regcache.
 
 New device support
 * Analog devices ADXL372 accelerometer
   - new driver for this accelerometer including fifo and and interrupt support.
     Follow up patches enforce trigger validation, add sampling frequency
     control and filter bandwidth control.  A later series added i2c support
     to the existing SPI support.
 * ST lsm6dsx
   - rework and add support fo the LSM6DSO 6 axis mems sensor.
 * Linear LTC 1660 DAC
   - new driver supporting the LTC 1660 and LTC 1665 SPI DACs.
 * Microchip mcp3911 ADC.
   - new driver for this integrated analog front end and ADC.
 * Qualcomm SPMI PMIC5 adc driver
   - using the spmi framework, new driver and bindings for this ADC.
     Follow up patch adds some missing channels.
 
 Features
 * ad5758
   - support hard reset using a gpio (if provided).
 * mpu6050
   - Regulator support
 * qcom-spmi-adc5
   - Sanity check the channel numbers provided by DT to make sure the
     driver actually knows about them.
 * sc27xx
   - give raw data for channel 20 as it's used on all known boards for
     the headset which needs a custom converstion function.  If it turns
     out someone builds a board where this isn't true we will deal with it
     when it happens.
   - add ADC scale calibration.
 * tsl2772
   - support device tree binding to set the proximity led settings.
   - regulator supprot.
   - binding for apds9930 - trivial addition as register compatible with tsl2772.
 
 Cleanups / Minor fixes
 
 * adxl345
   - supress a static checker warning but explicitly checking if the id
     object is null.
 * bh1750
   - avoid CONFIG_PM_SLEEP checks.
   - SPDX.
 * bme680
   - spelling mistake
   - use clamp rather than open coding.
   - white space and other similar fixes.
   - rename MSK to MASK for clarifty and use GENMASK to specify them.
   - use the FIELD_GET macro rather than a very odd accessor of dividing by
     16 to get the shift.
   - rework to share handing for oversampling of the various channels in a
     unified way.
   - check explicitly for val2 in write_raw function to ensure it is 0.
   - drop some field defines that don't add anything.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
