This series adds a missing feature in the veml6070 driver to select the
integration time, which also depends on an external restistor that has
been added to the corresponding bindings. Its name corresponds to the
one provided in the datasheet (Rset) and its units (kilo Ohms), but I am
open to more descriptive names if required.
The datasheet provides a Refresh time vs Rset graph (figure 7), which
does not clearly specify the minimum and maximum values for Rset. The
manufacuter has confirmed that no values under 75 kohms should be used
to keep linearity, and the graph does not go beyond 1200 kohms, which is
also the biggest Rset used in the application note. The default value of
300 kohms has been obtained from the datasheet, where this value is
given as an example (table 4).
When at it, two minor cleanups have been carried out:
- Unsigned int instead of plain unsigned.
- Use of a field for the integration time, which eases the handling of
the available integration times turning them into a simple [0, 3]
index.
