hwmon: (lm63) Add Sensylink CTF2301 support

Sensylink CTF2301 is a system-level thermal management solution chip.

The CTF2301 is an I2C/SMBus compatible device featuring:
- One local temperature sensor with +/-0.5 degree C accuracy and

    0.0625 degree C resolution.

- One remote temperature sensor for external diode-connected transistors, offering +/-1 degree C accuracy and 0.125 degree C resolution (temperature range: -40 degree C to +125 degree C).
- An integrated PWM fan controller capable of operating in two modes:
1. Direct-DCY: Open-loop direct duty cycle control.
2. Auto-Temp: Closed-loop automatic fan speed control based on measured temperature.
- A 1-channel fan speed monitor (TACH input) for RPM measurement.

As Guenter pointed out on v1, the CTF2301 register map is a near match for the LM63/LM96163 family (local and remote temperature, tachometer and PWM fan control), so this version drops the standalone ctf2301 driver and instead adds CTF2301 as a new chip type in the existing lm63 driver. This reuses the shared temperature, limit, alarm and PWM handling instead of duplicating it.

The CTF2301-specific differences are handled on top of lm63: 12-bit local temperature input and high-limit values, nine conversion rates, 12 fan-control lookup table entries, and optional 22.5 kHz high-resolution PWM. When no IRQ is described, the shared ALERT/TACH pin is configured as a tachometer input. The LM63 family can also register as a thermal cooling device when the device tree provides the #cooling-cells property.

Tested on a SpacemiT K3 CoM260 by booting an initramfs and verifying the CTF2301 probe. Temperature, tachometer, PWM, and conversion-rate behavior were checked against direct I2C register accesses and the datasheet.

Changes in v5:
- Quantize CTF2301 12-bit local-temperature limit writes to the
0.0625 degree C hardware resolution before updating the cache, so immediate reads remain consistent after a hardware refresh.
- Link to v4: https://patch.msgid.link/[email protected]

Changes in v4:
- Rebase onto v7.3-rc1, which includes the SpacemiT I2C timing prerequisite, and remove the obsolete dependency note.
- Do not add the SENSORS_LM63 THERMAL dependency suggested on v3 because CONFIG_THERMAL is boolean and v7.3-rc1 removes such tautological expressions.
- Preserve the upstream five-bit PWM frequency multiplier mask in the LM63 initialization error-handling path.
- Sort the chip type enum and remove redundant CTF2301 8-bit local temperature cache updates.
- Serialize CTF2301 12-bit local temperature cache reads.
- Keep PWM configuration caches synchronized after partial I2C write failures.
- Override the CoM260 I2C6 pin configuration through &i2c6_1_cfg,
as suggested by Yixun.
- Add Krzysztof's Acked-by and Reviewed-by tags.
- Link to v3: https://patch.msgid.link/[email protected]

Changes in v3:
- Add the Sensylink website link to the vendor-prefix commit.
- Preserve the optional interrupt from the trivial-devices binding.
- Explain in the commit message of patch 3/6 why CTF2301 cannot use national,lm63 as a fallback compatible.
- Check both bytes of CTF2301 local temperature values before caching them.
- Use the schema-valid 25 mA drive strength for the K3 I2C6 pins.
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/[email protected]

Changes in v2:
- Replace the standalone CTF2301 driver with a new lm63 chip type, as suggested by Guenter, reusing the existing temperature, limit, alarm, tachometer, PWM, and automatic fan-control paths.
- Add the temperature thresholds, alarms, and automatic fan-control lookup table support which were missing from the v1 driver.
- Handle CTF2301-specific 12-bit local temperature values, nine conversion rates, 12 lookup table entries, shared ALERT/TACH pin, and optional 22.5 kHz high-resolution PWM.
- Propagate SMBus failures from lm63 initialization and write paths.
- Add optional thermal cooling-device support for the LM63 family using the existing manual PWM control path.
- Move the National LM63-family compatibles from trivial-devices.yaml to a dedicated binding which permits #cooling-cells.
- Add CTF2301 to the LM63-family binding instead of keeping the standalone schema from v1. Do not declare #cooling-cells on K3 CoM260 yet because the board has no thermal consumer.
- Fix the binding errors reported by Rob by using a plain compatible string and wrapping the description.
- Document CTF2301 support in the lm63 hwmon documentation and provide the detailed register description used for review.
- Add the K3 CoM260 I2C6 pinctrl state and CTF2301 device node for hardware testing.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]

Move the National Semiconductor LM63, LM64, and LM96163 compatibles out of trivial-devices.yaml and into a dedicated binding. Describe their integrated fan control and preserve the optional interrupt used by the ALERT output. Permit use as thermal cooling devices via #cooling-cells.

Add the Sensylink CTF2301 temperature sensor and fan controller to the LM63 family binding. The chip follows the LM63 register model and can provide a thermal cooling device when #cooling-cells is present.

Do not provide a national,lm63 fallback because the CTF2301 is not fully compatible with LM63. It uses different conversion-rate encodings, extended local-temperature registers, additional fan lookup table entries, and device-specific PWM and ALERT/TACH configuration. An older LM63 driver would therefore not operate the device correctly.

Add Sensylink CTF2301 support to the LM63 driver. CTF2301 follows the LM63-style temperature, tachometer, and PWM register layout, while using a 12-bit local temperature register and requiring the ALERT/TACH pin to be configured for tachometer input.

Register an optional thermal cooling device when the device tree node provides #cooling-cells, allowing thermal zones to control the fan through the existing PWM path without changing behavior for existing LM63-family users.

Add the K3 I2C6 pinctrl state used by boards that route I2C6 to pads 7 and 8. Use a 25 mA drive strength, which is supported for both K3 IO voltage domains, and leave board-specific IO voltage selection to board files.

Hi Troy,

Yixun Lan (dlan)

Enable I2C6 on the K3 CoM260 module and describe the Sensylink CTF2301 temperature sensor and fan controller at address 0x4c.

Override the I2C6 pin power source at board level because the IO rail voltage is board-specific.
