Duplicate htu21 drivers

Duplicate htu21 drivers

[Michal Marek]

Hi,

commit 2b5c53d2c958 ("Add htu21 meas-spec driver support") introduced a
new implementation of the htu21 driver into drivers/iio/humidity. At
first glance, it provides the same features as drivers/hwmon/htu21 with
a different sysfs interface. What is the plan with these two drivers?
Will the iio driver replace the hwmon one? At a minimum, they should
conflict in kconfig, because module names must be unique.

Thanks,
Michal

Then you can either execute your plan :), or make the hwmon driver
depend on HTU21=n.

Yes, the driver in hwmon needs to be removed. Patch welcome.
