Description
-----------
The LTC2978 is an octal power supply monitor, supervisor, sequencer and
margin controller. The LTC3880 is a dual, PolyPhase DC/DC synchronous
step-down switching regulator controller.
Usage Notes
-----------
This driver does not probe for PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate
devices explicitly.
Example: the following commands will load the driver for an LTC2978 at address
0x60 on I2C bus #1:
# modprobe ltc2978
# echo ltc2978 0x60 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
