From f65e17086fc141bee1592bbf6e709e9c7a43541b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jean Delvare Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2008 17:51:09 +0200 Subject: hwmon: (lm90) Support the extra resolution bits of MAX6657 The Maxim MAX6657, MAX6658 and MAX6659 have extra resolution bits for the local temperature measurement. Let the lm90 driver read them and export them to user-space.
