This patchset adds support to the lm90 driver for initialising sensor parameters from a device tree, as well as using the sensor in thermal zones specified in a device tree. The patchset is extracted from an ongoing personal project to get mainline running on the Ouya console. The git repository is available at: https://github.com/stephank/linux.git This particular patchset can also be pulled from the 'lm90-of' branch there. The Ouya has a single GPIO fan, and an ON NCT1008 temperature sensor. With this patchset, the kernel can do active cooling through a thermal zone, and set sensible sensor alert parameters without user-space assistance. There's still something amiss with alerts, though. When the temperature exceeds one of the bounds, the machine bogs down and the log is flooded with warning messages. (An interrupt flood? I'm not too concerned at this point, active cooling should keep us far from the configured sensor alert bounds during normal operation.) Please note that these are my very first kernel patches. Hoping I get it right the first time!
