iio: add LM3533 ambient-light-sensor driver
Add sub-driver for the ambient-light-sensor interface on National Semiconductor / TI LM3533 lighting power chips. The sensor interface can be used to control the LEDs and backlights of the chip through defining five light zones and three sets of corresponding output-current values. The driver provides raw and mean adc readings along with the current light zone through sysfs. A threshold event can be generated on zone changes. The ALS-control output values can be set per zone for the three current output channels.

+ in each direction (rising|falling) and a zone change occurs.
+ The corresponding light zone can be read from

+Description:
+ Get the hysteresis for thresholds Y, that is,
+
+ threshY_hysteresis = threshY_raising - threshY_falling

+What: /sys/.../events/illuminance_threshY_raising_value
+Date: April 2012
+KernelVersion: 3.5
+Contact: Johan Hovold <jhovold@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ Specifies the value of threshold that the device is comparing
+ against for the events enabled by
+ in_illuminance0_thresh_either_en (0..255), where Y in 0..3.
+
+ Note that threshY_falling must be less than or equal to
+ threshY_raising.
+
+ These thresholds correspond to the eight zone-boundary
+ registers (boundaryY_{low,high}) and defines the five light
+ zones.

+Description:
+ Set the output current for channel out_currentY when in zone

+
+ These values correspond to the ALS-mapper target registers for
