ACPI devices with _HID INT3472 are currently matched to the tps68470 driver, however this does not cover all situations in which that _HID occurs. We've encountered three possibilities: 1. On Chrome OS devices, an ACPI device with _HID INT3472 (representing a physical TPS68470 device) that requires a GPIO and OpRegion driver 2. On devices designed for Windows, an ACPI device with _HID INT3472 (again representing a physical TPS68470 device) which requires GPIO, Clock and Regulator drivers. 3. On other devices designed for Windows, an ACPI device with _HID INT3472 which does **not** represent a physical TPS68470, and is instead used as a dummy device to group some system GPIO lines which are meant to be consumed by the sensor that is dependent on this entry. This commit adds a new module, registering a platform driver to deal with the 3rd scenario plus an i2c driver to deal with #1 and #2, by querying the CLDB buffer found against INT3472 entries to determine which is most appropriate.

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.
