thermal: qcom: tsens: Add a skeletal TSENS drivers
TSENS is Qualcomms' thermal temperature sensor device. It supports reading temperatures from multiple thermal sensors present on various QCOM SoCs. Calibration data is generally read from a non-volatile memory (eeprom) device. Add a skeleton driver with all the necessary abstractions so a variety of qcom device families which support TSENS can add driver extensions. Also add the required device tree bindings which can be used to describe the TSENS device in DT.

+* QCOM SoC Temperature Sensor (TSENS)
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible :
+ - "qcom,msm8916-tsens" : For 8916 Family of SoCs
+ - "qcom,msm8974-tsens" : For 8974 Family of SoCs
+ - "qcom,msm8996-tsens" : For 8996 Family of SoCs
+
+- reg: Address range of the thermal registers
+- #thermal-sensor-cells : Should be 1. See ./thermal.txt for a description.
+- Refer to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/nvmem/nvmem.txt to know how to specify
+nvmem cells
+
+Example:
+tsens: thermal-sensor@900000 {
+ compatible = "qcom,msm8916-tsens";
+ reg = <0x4a8000 0x2000>;
+ nvmem-cells = <&tsens_caldata>, <&tsens_calsel>;
+ nvmem-cell-names = "caldata", "calsel";
+ #thermal-sensor-cells = <1>;
