Description
-----------
The LM75 implements one temperature sensor. Limits can be set through the
Overtemperature Shutdown register and Hysteresis register. Each value can be
set and read to half-degree accuracy.
An alarm is issued (usually to a connected LM78) when the temperature
gets higher then the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays on until
the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value.
All temperatures are in degrees Celsius, and are guaranteed within a
range of -55 to +125 degrees.
hwmon: (lm75) Tune resolution and sample time per chip Most LM75-compatible chips can either sample much faster or with a much better resolution than the original LM75 chip. So far the lm75 driver did not let the user take benefit of these improvements. Do it now. I decided to almost always configure the chip to use the best resolution possible, which also means the longest sample time. The only chips for which I didn't are the DS75, DS1775 and STDS75, because they are really too slow in 12-bit mode (1.2 to 1.5 second worst case) so I went for 11-bit mode as a more reasonable tradeoff. This choice is dictated by the fact that the hwmon subsystem is meant for system monitoring, it has never been supposed to be ultra-fast, and as a matter of fact we do cache the sampled values in almost all drivers. If anyone isn't pleased with these default settings, they can always introduce a platform data structure or DT support for the lm75. That being said, it seems nobody ever complained that the driver wouldn't refresh the value faster than every 1.5 second, and the change made it faster for all chips even in 12-bit mode, so I don't expect any complaint.

The driver caches the values for a period varying between 1 second for the
slowest chips and 125 ms for the fastest chips; reading it more often

The original LM75 was typically used in combination with LM78-like chips
on PC motherboards, to measure the temperature of the processor(s). Clones
are now used in various embedded designs.

The LM77 is not supported, contrary to what we pretended for a long time.
Both chips are simply not compatible, value encoding differs.
