[PATCH v1] iio: adc: aspeed: Support deglitch feature.

[Billy Tsai]

>>> > Create event sysfs for applying the deglitch condition. When
>>> > in_voltageY_thresh_rising_en/in_voltageY_thresh_falling_en is set to true,
>>> > the driver will use the in_voltageY_thresh_rising_value and
>>> > in_voltageY_thresh_falling_value as threshold values. If the ADC value
>>> > falls outside this threshold, the driver will wait for the ADC sampling
>>> > period and perform an additional read once to achieve the deglitching
>>> > purpose.

> Okay, searching for "conversion" in the datasheet didn't turn up anything like this. It seems I wasn't off-track with asking. If you go forward with the patch in some manner, can you add a comment to the code documenting the meaning of 'eoc'?

Okay, I will add the comment for the meaning of eoc.

> Okay, I feel using a magic value '12' with what you wrote above as an explanation is asking a bit much of the reader. Again, if you go forward with this patch in some fashion, can you document the meaning of 12 in a comment (and possibly use a macro to name it)?

Okay, I will include comments and use meaningful macro to name it.

Thanks
