Dear Guenter,

The original plan was to use the IIO driver to access the temperature
and voltage sensors, and the HWMON driver to access the tachometers.
However, since the device is a hot-plug USB device, as far as I know,
IIO-HWMON is not applicable. I will merge the IIO driver part into the
HWMON driver in the next patch.
In  other words, the driver will be used to access TIN, VIN and FIN.
See drivers/mfd/sun4i-gpadc.c
for an example of an mfd using the iio-hwmon bridge.

Jonathan
Best regards
Ming

[Kalesh] Please try to maintain RCT order for variable declaration  
Ok, but that is already the case here ?  
[Ming] Is there anything that needs to be changed?
 
I don't think so, If two lines have the same length, the order is up
to the developer to decide.

Question though is if the buffer needs to be initialized. You should drop
the initialization if it is not necessary. In that case the second line
would be shorter anyway, and the order question would not arise.
 
Actually, I just noticed that you also submitted an IIO driver which
reports the same data again. If a chip has an IIO driver, there should
be no HWMON driver since the IIO -> HWMON bridge can then be used if
necessary. So please drop this driver.

Thanks,
Guenter
