[PATCH v4 0/2] sy7636a: power the panel only during updates

[PATCH v4 0/2] sy7636a: power the panel only during updates

[Pablo Mazzini]

The SY7636A hwmon driver keeps VCOM on from probe, so a display driver
can not power the panel only during updates.

Read the temperature only while the rails are on instead.

This is based on regulator for-7.5, which has the rest of the series.
Patch 1 depends on "regulator: sy7636a: bind to the I2C device directly"
there.

Tested on a PocketBook Verse (B288).

v4:
- drop the patches applied by Mark and Guenter
- patch 1: keep the hwmon name (Guenter)

v3:
- drop the applied patches 1-3
- new patch: no wait when power good is already high (Mark)
- move the I2C binding before the hwmon read change, so the hwmon driver
  only probes once vin is on (Andreas)
- explain in a comment why power good gates the read, and its
  limitation (Guenter, Andreas)

v2:
- drop the DT patch keeping VCOM always-on (Andreas)
- only wait for power good, VCOM_EN stays as it was (Andreas)
- new patch: fix negative temperatures
- keep the temperature in drivers/hwmon as an auxiliary driver of the
  regulator, instead of moving it into the regulator driver (Guenter,
  Andreas)
- no VCOM enable at probe, which also removes the probe race
- read power good and the temperature in one transfer (Andreas)

[PATCH v4 1/2] hwmon: sy7636a: read the temperature only while the rails are on

[Pablo Mazzini]

The driver enables VCOM at probe, which keeps the panel's high voltage
rails on for good. Read the temperature only while the rails are on, when
the chip samples it, and return -ENODATA otherwise. Read power good with
it in one transfer, so the value can not be from before the first sample
or after the rails went off.
