hwmon: (pmbus) Add pmbus driver for MAX15301

Add pmbus driver support for Maxim MAX15301 InTune Automatically
Compensated Digital PoL Controller with Driver and PMBus Telemetry

Even though the specification does not specifically mention it,
extensive empirical testing has revealed that auto-detection of
limit-registers will fail in a random fashion unless the delay
parameter is set to above about 80us. The default delay is set
to 100us to include some safety margin.

This patch is tested on a Flex BMR461 converter module.

+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver supports hardware monitoring for Maxim MAX15301 controller chip and
+compatible modules.
+
+The driver is a client driver to the core PMBus driver. Please see
+Documentation/hwmon/pmbus.rst and Documentation.hwmon/pmbus-core for details
+on PMBus client drivers.
+
+
+Usage Notes
+-----------
+
+This driver does not auto-detect devices. You will have to instantiate the
+devices explicitly. Please see Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices.rst for
+details.
+
+
+Platform data support
+---------------------
+
+The driver supports standard PMBus driver platform data.
+
+
+Module parameters
+-----------------
+
+delay
+-----
+
+The controller requires a minimum interval between I2C bus accesses.
+The default interval is set to 100 us. For manual override, the driver
+provides a writeable module parameter, 'delay', which can be used to
+set the interval to a value between 0 and 65,535 microseconds.
+
+
+Sysfs entries
+-------------
+
+The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write; all other
+attributes are read-only.
