This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

iio: adc: ad7124: fix temperature channel

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Fix temperature channel not working due to gain and offset not being initialized. For channels other than the voltage ones calibration is skipped (which is OK). However that results in the calibration register values tracked in st->channels[i].cfg all being zero. These zeros are later written to hardware before a measurement is made which caused the raw temperature readings to be always 8388608 (0x800000).

To fix it, we just make sure the gain and offset values are set to the default values and still return early without doing an internal calibration.

While here, add a comment explaining why we don't bother calibrating the temperature channel.
