Subject: [PATCH 1/2] thermal: generic-adc: Add DT binding for ADC based thermal sensor driver

Sometimes, thermal sensors like NCT thermistors are connected to
the ADC channel. The temperature is read by reading the voltage
across the sensor resistance via ADC and referring the lookup
table for ADC value to temperature. The ADC interface is provided
through the IIO framework.

Add DT binding doc for the adc based thermal sensor driver to detail
the DT property and provide the example for how to use it.

+General Purpose Analog To Digital Converter (ADC) based thermal sensor
+
+On some of platforms, thermal sensor like thermistors are connected to
+one of ADC channel and sensor resistance is read via voltage across the
+sensor. The voltage read across the sensor is mapped to temperature using
+voltage-temperature lookup table.
+
+This driver provides the interface to sensor-ADC interconnection and
+the relation ship between ADC read value and temperature.
+
+Required properties:
+===================
+- compatible:		     Must be "generic-adc-thermal".
+- lower-temperature:	     Lower temperature for the lookup table
+			     in millicelsius.
+- upper-temperature:	     Upper temperature for the lookup table
+			     in millicelsius.
+- step-temperature:	     The temperature steps for the reading ADC
+			     value in millicelsius.
+- temperature-lookup-table:  The ADC reading value on each step of the
+			     temperature starting from lower temperature
+			     to upper temperature.
+			     When ADC is read, the value is looked up on the
+			     table to get the equivalent temperature.
+- #thermal-sensor-cells:     Should be 1. See ./thermal.txt for a description
+			     of this property. 
+
+Example :
+#include <dt-bindings/thermal/thermal.h>
+
+i2c@...0c400 {
