[PATCH v5 2/5] iio: ABI: document mag_referenced

From: Cosmin Tanislav
Date: Mon Feb 14 2022 - 02:38:36 EST


Some accelerometers that support activity and inactivity
events also support a referenced mode, in which the
gravitational acceleration is taken as a point of
reference before comparing the acceleration to the
specified activity and inactivity magnitude.

For example, in the case of the ADXL367, for activity
detection, the formula is:

abs(acceleration - reference) > magnitude

Add a new event type that makes this behavior clear.
