patch "iio: adc: hx711: fix bug in sampling of data" added to staging-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    iio: adc: hx711: fix bug in sampling of data

to my staging git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: adc: hx711: fix bug in sampling of data

Fix bug in sampling function hx711_cycle() when interrupt occures while
PD_SCK is high. If PD_SCK is high for at least 60 us power down mode of
the sensor is entered which in turn leads to a wrong measurement.

Switch off interrupts during a PD_SCK high period and move query of DOUT
to the latest point of time which is at the end of PD_SCK low period.

This bug exists in the driver since it's initial addition. The more
interrupts on the system the higher is the probability that it happens.
