Currently custom sensors properties are not decoded and it is up to user space to interpret. Some manufacturers already standardized the meaning of some custom sensors. They can be presented as a proper IIO sensor. We can identify these sensors based on manufacturer and serial number property in the report. This change is identifying hinge sensor when the manufacturer is "INTEL". This creates a platform device so that a sensor driver can be loaded to process these sensors.

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.
