For BMP18x, BMP28x, BME280, BMP38x the reading of the pressure
value requires an update of the t_fine variable which happens
through reading the temperature value.
So all the bmpxxx_read_press() functions of the above sensors
are internally calling the equivalent bmpxxx_read_temp() function
in order to update the t_fine value. By just looking at the code
this functionality is a bit hidden and is not easy to understand
why those channels are not independent.
This commit tries to clear these things a bit by splitting the
bmpxxx_{read/compensate}_{temp/press/humid}() to the following:
i. bmpxxx_read_{temp/press/humid}_adc(): read the raw value from
the sensor.
ii. bmpxx_calc_t_fine(): calculate the t_fine variable.
iii. bmpxxx_get_t_fine(): get the t_fine variable.
iv. bmpxxx_compensate_{temp/press/humid}(): compensate the adc
values and return the calculated value.
v. bmpxxx_read_{temp/press/humid}(): combine calls of the
aforementioned functions to return the requested value.

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 reStructuredText 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.
