patch "iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: Set FIFO ODR for accelerometer and gyroscope" added to char-misc-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

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

    iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: Set FIFO ODR for accelerometer and gyroscope

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-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: imu: st_lsm6dsx: Set FIFO ODR for accelerometer and gyroscope
 only

The st_lsm6dsx_set_fifo_odr() function, which is called when enabling and
disabling the hardware FIFO, checks the contents of the hw->settings->batch
array at index sensor->id, and then sets the current ODR value in sensor
registers that depend on whether the register address is set in the above
array element. This logic is valid for internal sensors only, i.e. the
accelerometer and gyroscope; however, since commit c91c1c844ebd ("iio: imu:
st_lsm6dsx: add i2c embedded controller support"), this function is called
also when configuring the hardware FIFO for external sensors (i.e. sensors
accessed through the sensor hub functionality), which can result in
unrelated device registers being written.

Add a check to the beginning of st_lsm6dsx_set_fifo_odr() so that it does
not touch any registers unless it is called for internal sensors.
