hwmon: (ads1015) Make gain and datarate configurable
Configuration for ads1015 gain and datarate is possible via devicetree or platform data. This is a followup patch to previous ads1015 patches on Jean Delvares tree. Signed-off-by: Dirk Eibach <eibach@gdsys.de> Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

Platform Data
-------------
-In linux/i2c/ads1015.h platform data is defined as:
-
-struct ads1015_platform_data {
- unsigned int exported_channels;
-};
-
-exported_channels is a bitmask that specifies which inputs should be exported.
+In linux/i2c/ads1015.h platform data is defined, channel_data contains
+configuration data for the used input combinations:
+- pga is the programmable gain amplifier (values are full scale)
+ 0: +/- 6.144 V
+ 1: +/- 4.096 V
+ 2: +/- 2.048 V
+ 3: +/- 1.024 V
+ 4: +/- 0.512 V
+ 5: +/- 0.256 V
+- data_rate in samples per second
+ 0: 128
+ 1: 250
+ 2: 490
+ 3: 920
+ 4: 1600
+ 5: 2400
+ 6: 3300
Example:
struct ads1015_platform_data data = {
- .exported_channels = (1 << 2) | (1 << 4)
+ .channel_data = {
+ [2] = { .enabled = true, .pga = 1, .data_rate = 0 },
+ [4] = { .enabled = true, .pga = 4, .data_rate = 5 },
+ }
};
-In this case only in2_input and in4_input would be created.
+In this case only in2_input (FS +/- 4.096 V, 128 SPS) and in4_input
+(FS +/- 0.512 V, 2400 SPS) would be created.
Devicetree
----------
-The ads1015 node may have an "exported-channels" property.
-exported_channels is a bitmask that specifies which inputs should be exported.
-
-Example:
-ads1015@49 {
- compatible = "ti,ads1015";
- reg = <0x49>;
- exported-channels = < 0x14 >;
-};
-
-In this case only in2_input and in4_input would be created.
+Configuration is also possible via devicetree:
