+Subject: hwmon: (zl6100) Enable interval between chip accesses for all chips
+
+From: Guenter Roeck <guenter.roeck@ericsson.com>
+
+commit fecfb64422d91a9621a3f96ab75c3a5f13e80b58 upstream.
+
+Intersil reports that all chips supported by the zl6100 driver require
+an interval between chip accesses, even ZL2004 and ZL6105 which were thought
+to be safe.

+-Some Intersil/Zilker Labs DC-DC controllers require a minimum interval between
+-I2C bus accesses. According to Intersil, the minimum interval is 2 ms, though
+-1 ms appears to be sufficient and has not caused any problems in testing.
+-The problem is known to affect ZL6100, ZL2105, and ZL2008. It is known not to
+-affect ZL2004 and ZL6105. The driver automatically sets the interval to 1 ms
+-except for ZL2004 and ZL6105. To enable manual override, the driver provides a
+-writeable module parameter, 'delay', which can be used to set the interval to
+-a value between 0 and 65,535 microseconds.
