[PATCH] iio: proximity: vl53l0x-i2c add i2c_device_id

From: Vaishnav M A
Date: Fri Oct 16 2020 - 14:52:14 EST


Hi,

This patch aims to add i2c_device_id for the vl53l0x-i2c driver.
will it be possible to consider this patch add the i2c_device_id,
so that the device can be instantiated using i2c_new_client_device
or say from the userspace?.This will be really helpful in cases
where the device tree based description is not possible now(Eg.
a device on a gbphy i2c adapter created by greybus).

The particular usecase here is described over this RFC Patch
for the mikroBUS driver:
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1290148/

Thanks and Regards,

Vaishnav M A
