iio: documentation: Document proximity sensor label use
Add an entry to Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio for the new device label sysfs-attribute support. And document the standardized labels which may be used with proximity sensors to hint userspace about the intended use of the sensor. Using labels to differentiate between the multiple proximity sensors which a modern laptop/tablet may have was discussed in this thread: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/9f9b0ff6-3bf1-63c4-eb36-901cecd7c4d9@redhat.com/ As mentioned there the "proximity-wifi*" labels are already being used in this manner on some chromebooks, see e.g.: arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sc7180-trogdor.dtsi arch/arm64/boot/dts/qcom/sc7180-trogdor-lte-sku.dtsi And the "proximity-palmrest" and "proximity-lap" labels are intended to be used with the lap and palmrest sensors found in recent Lenovo ThinkPad models.
