The PulsedLight LIDAR-Lite v2 is currently described as a trivial device, but it is not one: besides the I2C interface it exposes a power-enable pin and a mode-control pin (the latter also used for the PWM distance output). Move it to a dedicated binding file. While at it, document the LIDAR-Lite v3: it is sold by Garmin, which acquired PulsedLight, and is pin-compatible with the v2, so add it with "pulsedlight,lidar-lite-v2" as a fallback compatible. Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Gobbi <[email protected]> --- Hi, all, This was on my plate and I didn't have a chance to send this before. The vendor change is not a typo: see the discussion at [1]. Tks and regards.
