Agreed; the sensor doesn't seem to be very useful for traditional hardware
monitoring. The driver better resides in IIO.

I don't understand why readings are discarded. Why trigger multiple
readings just to discard all but the last one ? I thought iio would
be expected to return all values.

Additional comment inline.

This is really pointless. The register has only one bit to set.
Just write that bit; reading the register before that is pointless.

Also, the code assumes that one of the gpio input registers would be used
to trigger temperature readings. Why trigger another one if this is indeed
the case ? Triggering a temperature reading should only be necessary if
there is no data in the fifo.

Not my call to make, but this driver is really noisy.

The datasheet says that it can take up to 50 ms to report a result.
10 retries with 50ms wait each time seems overkill.

Odd error handling. And why use usleep_range() here
but msleep() above ?

This is wrong. It uses the overflow counter as data counter if it
is != 0. The overflow counter counts the number of overflows, not
the number of entries in the fifo.

data_count is declared as u8 and will never be < 0.
