    hwmon: Add driver for fsp-3y PSUs and PDUs · 1734b413
    Václav Kubernát authored
    This patch adds support for these devices:
    - YH-5151E - the PDU
    - YM-2151E - the PSU
    
    The device datasheet says that the devices support PMBus 1.2, but in my
    testing, a lot of the commands aren't supported and if they are, they
    sometimes behave strangely or inconsistently. For example, writes to the
    PAGE command requires using PEC, otherwise the write won't work and the
    page won't switch, even though, the standard says that PEC is optional.
    On the other hand, writes to SMBALERT don't require PEC. Because of
    this, the driver is mostly reverse engineered with the help of a tool
    called pmbus_peek written by David Brownell (and later adopted by my
    colleague Jan Kundrát).
    
    The device also has some sort of a timing issue when switching pages,
    which is explained further in the code.
    
    Because of this, the driver support is limited. It exposes only the
    values that have been tested to work correctly.
