Bartosz Golaszewski 8a5fc79513 hwmon: (ina2xx) make shunt resistance configurable at run-time
The shunt resistance can only be set via platform_data or device tree. This
isn't suitable for devices in which the shunt resistance can change/isn't
known at boot-time.

Add a sysfs attribute that allows to read and set the shunt resistance.

Description
-----------
The INA219 is a high-side current shunt and power monitor with an I2C
interface. The INA219 monitors both shunt drop and supply voltage, with
programmable conversion times and filtering.
The INA220 is a high or low side current shunt and power monitor with an I2C
interface. The INA220 monitors both shunt drop and supply voltage.
The INA226 is a current shunt and power monitor with an I2C interface.
The INA226 monitors both a shunt voltage drop and bus supply voltage.
The INA230 is a high or low side current shunt and power monitor with an I2C
interface. The INA230 monitors both a shunt voltage drop and bus supply voltage.
The shunt value in micro-ohms can be set via platform data or device tree at
compile-time or via the shunt_resistor attribute in sysfs at run-time. Please
refer to the Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/ina2xx.txt for bindings
if the device tree is used.
