following RFC started in https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/10/370
and feed back from https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/18/395

 * squash to a single patch that provides DIRECT and SOFTWARE buffer mode.

 * implement INFO_INT_TIME abi for each adc in order to better match how
   the chip works.  This also allows to compute the actual sample freq
   for INFO_SAMP_FREQ, that results from both the averaging ratio and the
   possible integration times.

 * Add an INT_TIME setting for each voltage ADC (default values are compa
   -tible for previous implementations).

 * provide the averaging feature of the chip using the OVERSAMPLING_RATIO
   abi.

 * by default, only issue a new sample value in the buffer when the
   Conversion Ready Flag indicates that a new value is available. The
   capture thread polls slightly faster than the chip-internal sampling
   clock to prevent re-read or skipping of samples.

 * Since this check for CVRF has its cost (i2c xfer), allow for a relaxed
   mode for when re-read or skipping or one sample is not big deal, but
   a faster sampling rate is wanted.

 * remove the calibration INFO, since the driver sets a hardcoded value
   for 'Current_LSB', only RShunt is available as a parameter. No use to
   expose the register to the user.

Why two drivers (hwmon and IIO) for this device ?
------------------------------------------------

 * Hwmon and IIO do not address exactly the same use-cases, while this chip
   can (and is) being used either as a power monitoring feature of a host
   device or as sensor to measure power properties of a target DUT.

 * In the second use-case (probing a DUT) we wish to plot measurements
   over time, display transients, peak values, compute derived metrics
   (like energy). A buffer streaming scheme and remote capabilities
   with libiio seems beneficial.
