Subsystems (2)
This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
iio: light: vcnl4000: update sampling periods for vcnl4200
to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-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.

Vishay has published a new version of "Designing the VCNL4200 Into an Application" application note in October 2019. The new version specifies that there is +-20% of part to part tolerance. This explains the drift seen during experiments. The proximity pulse width is also changed from 32us to 30us. According to the support, the tolerance also applies to ambient light.
So update the sampling periods. As the reading is blocking, current users may notice slightly longer response time.
