So, I assumed that the conversions weren’t happening during in that state, and that there would be the delay after moving from the ‘shutdown' state (as is described by the one-shot mode as well where the device state returns to ’shutdown’ when the conversion has taken place).
The device is, after power-on, not in shutdown mode.

I was assuming that the device could be in the shutdown state - for example if the module had previously been unloaded. I agree that this is not required at system startup time. Perhaps I should check to see if the previous configuration had the device in the ‘shutdown’ state, and in that instance apply the delay? In my opinion it doesn’t really matter either way.

The tmp102 driver adds the timeout if the device was in shutdown mode (SD=1).
if (tmp102->config_orig & TMP102_CONF_SD) {
...
tmp102->ready_time += msecs_to_jiffies(CONVERSION_TIME_MS);
}
Your code adds the timeout if the device was in continuous operation mode (M1=1).
if ((tmp108->config & TMP108_CONF_MODE_MASK)
== TMP108_MODE_CONTINUOUS) {
tmp108->ready_time +=
msecs_to_jiffies(TMP108_CONVERSION_TIME_MS);
}
Unless I am missing something, that is exactly the opposite.
Side note: Per datasheet, M0 is irrelevant if M1=1. The above check does not
match M1=1, M0=1, but that condition would still reflect continuous mode.
