We have a couple of thermocouple IIO drivers, supporting several chips. Some of them support only one specific thermocouple type (e.g. "K", "J"), one of them can be configured to work with several different thermocouple types. In certain applications thermocouples could be externally connected to the chip by the user. This patch introduces a new IIO standard attribute to report the supported thermocouple type and, where applicable, to allow it to be dynamically set using sysfs.

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.
