iio: distance: srf08: add driver ABI documentation
Add sysfs-bus-iio-distance-srf08 for individual attributes of the driver, especially: - sensitivity which the device documentation calls gain for amplifying the signal - max_range for limiting the maximum distance for expected echos and therefore limiting the time waiting for telegrams Signed-off-by: Andreas Klinger <ak@it-klinger.de> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Cameron <jic23@kernel.org>

+What /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/sensor_max_range
+Date: January 2017
+KernelVersion: 4.11
+Contact: linux-iio@vger.kernel.org
+Description:
+ Show or set the maximum range between the sensor and the
+ first object echoed in meters. Default value is 6.020.
+ This setting limits the time the driver is waiting for a
+ echo.
+ Showing the range of available values is represented as the
+ minimum value, the step and the maximum value, all enclosed
+ in square brackets.
+ Example:
+ [0.043 0.043 11.008]
