Instead of converting the update timeout data to the milliseconds each
time on the read procedure let's preserve the currently set timeout in the
dedicated driver private data cache. The cached value will be then used in
the timeout read method and in the alarm-less data conversion to prevent
the caller task hanging up in case if the PVT sensor is suddenly powered
down.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
