Set the read_label() callback to return a friendly name provided in DT
(firmware), in order to make in_{therm,voltage}X_label attributes show
up in sysfs for userspace to consume a channel name. This is
particularly useful for custom thermistors being attached to otherwise
generically named GPIOs, where the name is known by the board DT.
If the channel name isn't set in DT, use the datasheet_name hardcoded in
the driver instead.
Note that this doesn't fall back to fwnode_get_name() as that provides
suboptimally readable names, with an @xx address suffix from board DT.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
