Not sure I am parsing that correctly. Does the firmware report highest/lowest
or min/max ? reset_history only makes sense if the chip supports highest/lowest.

In case you plan to implement highest/lowest in software ... please don't.
Highest/lowest attributes must only be provided if the history is delivered
by the chip. If the chip does not support highest/lowest values, user
space can implement it, but we definitely don't want any workers or
similar in the kernel to do it.
