From: Akshay Bhat <akshay.bhat@xxxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit 7a18afe8097731b8ffb6cb5b2b3b418ded77c105 ] On ads7828 the internal reference defaults to off upon power up. When using internal reference, it needs to be turned on and the voltage needs to settle before normal conversion cycle can be started. Hence perform a dummy read in the probe to enable the internal reference allowing the voltage to settle before performing a normal read. Without this fix, the first read from the ADC when using internal reference always returns incorrect data.
