The sht15 sensor allows validating exchanges to and from the device using a crc8 function. An utility function to reverse a byte has also been added.

Description
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The SHT10, SHT11, SHT15, SHT71, and SHT75 are humidity and temperature
 | 
						|
sensors.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The devices communicate using two GPIO lines.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Supported resolutions for the measurements are 14 bits for temperature and 12
 | 
						|
bits for humidity, or 12 bits for temperature and 8 bits for humidity.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The humidity calibration coefficients are programmed into an OTP memory on the
 | 
						|
chip. These coefficients are used to internally calibrate the signals from the
 | 
						|
sensors. Disabling the reload of those coefficients allows saving 10ms for each
 | 
						|
measurement and decrease power consumption, while loosing on precision.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Some options may be set directly in the sht15_platform_data structure
 | 
						|
or via sysfs attributes.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Notes:
 | 
						|
  * The regulator supply name is set to "vcc".
 | 
						|
  * If a CRC validation fails, a soft reset command is sent, which resets
 | 
						|
    status register to its hardware default value, but the driver will try to
 | 
						|
    restore the previous device configuration.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Platform data
 | 
						|
-------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* checksum:
 | 
						|
  set it to true to enable CRC validation of the readings (default to false).
 | 
						|
* no_otp_reload:
 | 
						|
  flag to indicate not to reload from OTP (default to false).
 | 
						|
* low_resolution:
 | 
						|
  flag to indicate the temp/humidity resolution to use (default to false).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sysfs interface
 | 
						|
---------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* temp1_input:     temperature input
 | 
						|
* humidity1_input: humidity input
 | 
						|
* heater_enable:   write 1 in this attribute to enable the on-chip heater,
 | 
						|
                   0 to disable it. Be careful not to enable the heater
 | 
						|
                   for too long.
 | 
						|
* temp1_fault:     if 1, this means that the voltage is low (below 2.47V) and
 | 
						|
                   measurement may be invalid.
 | 
						|
* humidity1_fault: same as temp1_fault.
