iio: light: ltr501: Add support for the LTR-659PS-01 proximity sensor
This commit adds support for the Lite-On LTR-659PS-01 proximity-only sensor
to the ltr501 IIO driver.

[Severity: High]
Does assigning scan_index 0 here break triggered buffer capture for ltr659?
In ltr501_trigger_handler(), active_scan_mask bits 0 and 1 are hardcoded for
the ALS channels, while only bit 2 is treated as the proximity channel:
if (test_bit(0, indio_dev->active_scan_mask) ||
test_bit(1, indio_dev->active_scan_mask))
mask |= LTR501_STATUS_ALS_RDY;
if (test_bit(2, indio_dev->active_scan_mask))
mask |= LTR501_STATUS_PS_RDY;
ret = ltr501_drdy(data, mask);
if (ret < 0)
goto done;
if (mask & LTR501_STATUS_ALS_RDY) {
ret = regmap_bulk_read(data->regmap, LTR501_ALS_DATA1,
als_buf, sizeof(als_buf));
if (ret < 0)
goto done;
if (test_bit(0, indio_dev->active_scan_mask))
scan.channels[j++] = le16_to_cpu(als_buf[1]);
When buffered capture is enabled on ltr659, bit 0 is set in active_scan_mask
and bit 2 is never set, so ltr501_trigger_handler() waits on
LTR501_STATUS_ALS_RDY and reads LTR501_ALS_DATA1 instead of reading
LTR501_PS_DATA.

[Severity: Medium]
Should ltr659_channels also set BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ) on the
IIO_PROXIMITY channel?
ltr659_attributes exposes sampling_frequency_available in sysfs, and
ltr501_read_raw() and __ltr501_write_raw() support IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ for
IIO_PROXIMITY, but ltr659_channels only sets BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW) and
BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_SCALE). Without BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ) in the channel
spec, no sampling_frequency sysfs attribute is created for ltr659.

[Severity: Medium]
The commit message notes that ALS registers are marked as reserved on the
LTR-659PS-01 and interactions with them are discouraged, but won't
ltr501_init() and ltr501_write_contr() still read and write those registers?
During probe, ltr501_init() unconditionally reads LTR501_ALS_CONTR, calls
ltr501_read_intr_prst(data, IIO_INTENSITY, &data->als_period) which reads the
ALS persistence field and LTR501_ALS_MEAS_RATE, and then calls
ltr501_write_contr():
static int ltr501_write_contr(struct ltr501_data *data, u8 als_val, u8 ps_val)
{
int ret;
ret = regmap_write(data->regmap, LTR501_ALS_CONTR, als_val);
if (ret < 0)
return ret;
return regmap_write(data->regmap, LTR501_PS_CONTR, ps_val);
}
ltr501_write_contr() also writes LTR501_ALS_CONTR during ltr501_powerdown()
and ltr501_resume(). Should these ALS register accesses be skipped when
chip_info->als_gain is NULL?
