[PATCH v7 06/11] iio: adc: hx711: introduce hx711_chip_info structure

From: Piyush Patle

Date: Sun May 10 2026 - 15:53:59 EST


Add a per-variant static configuration structure and populate the IIO
device fields from it at probe time.

This is a preparatory change for adding support for more HX711-compatible
hardware variants without duplicating the probe-time setup.

No functional change for existing HX711 users.
