[PATCH] iio: pressure: mpl115: Implementing low power mode by

[Rajat Khandelwal]

MPL115 supports shutdown gpio which can be used to set the default
state to low power mode. Power from all internal circuits and
registers is removed. This is done by pulling the SHDN pin to low.
This patch sets the default mode to low-power and only exits when
a reading is required from the chip. This maximises power savings.

According to spec., a wakeup time period of ~5 ms exists between
waking up and actually communicating with the device. This is
implemented using sleep delay.

Hi Rajat,

5ms is a significant delay to add to the read paths on this device
(I think the normal readout is < 3msec total).

As such, have you considered implementing this as runtime_pm using
autosleep?  That way, if the user is doing a bunch of readings (perhaps
to compute a more accurate average value) they won't end up powering the
device up and down.  However, if the reads are infrequent then the
power saving will be achieved at the cost of more latency on the first
read after a long gap.

Thanks,

Jonathan
