All the ADIS devices perform, at the beginning, a self test to make sure the device is in a sane state. Previously, the logic was that the self-test was performed in adis_initial_startup() and if that failed a reset was done and then a self-test was attempted again. This change unifies the reset mechanism under the adis_initial_startup() call. A HW reset will be done if GPIO is configured, or a SW reset otherwise. This should make sure that the chip is in a sane state for self-test. Once the reset is done, the self-test operation will be performed. If anything goes wrong with self-test, the driver should just bail/error-out (i.e. no second attempt). The chip would likely not be a in a sane state state if the self-test fails after a reset.

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.
