Subject: [PATCH v4 0/1] hwmon: (sht3x) read out sensor serial number

The temperature/humidity sensors of the STS3x/SHT3x family are
calibrated and factory-programmed with a unique serial number.
For some sensors, this serial number can be used to obtain a calibration
certificate via an API provided by the manufacturer (Sensirion).
Expose the serial number via debugfs.

A "sht3x" debugfs directory is created when loading the driver.
Within this parent directory, another directory is created for each
sensor instantiation which contains the serial number.
The sensor-specific directories are managed by devres, such that
they are cleaned up upon deinstantation or if hwmon registration fails.
The top-level directory is removed when the driver is unloaded.

Changelog
=========

v3 -> v4:
	- Remove debugfs entry with devm_add_action_or_reset()

v2 -> v3:
	- Remove #ifdef for debugfs
	- Add debugfs cleanup
	- Do not expose serial number if read fails

v1 -> v2:
	- Change from sysfs to debugfs
	- Add documentation improvements
