Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future. Change-Id: I87543d81c9df70d99c5001fbdf646b202c19f423 Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@intel.com>

+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements support for the Maxim MAX1668, MAX1805 and MAX1989
+chips.
+
+The three devices are very similar, but the MAX1805 has a reduced feature
+set; only two remote temperature inputs vs the four avaible on the other
+two ICs.
+
+The driver is able to distinguish between the devices and creates sysfs
+entries as follows:
+
+MAX1805, MAX1668 and MAX1989:
+
+temp1_input ro local (ambient) temperature
+temp1_max rw local temperature maximum threshold for alarm
+temp1_max_alarm ro local temperature maximum threshold alarm
+temp1_min rw local temperature minimum threshold for alarm
+temp1_min_alarm ro local temperature minimum threshold alarm
+temp2_input ro remote temperature 1
+temp2_max rw remote temperature 1 maximum threshold for alarm
+temp2_max_alarm ro remote temperature 1 maximum threshold alarm
+temp2_min rw remote temperature 1 minimum threshold for alarm
+temp2_min_alarm ro remote temperature 1 minimum threshold alarm
+temp3_input ro remote temperature 2
+temp3_max rw remote temperature 2 maximum threshold for alarm
+temp3_max_alarm ro remote temperature 2 maximum threshold alarm
+temp3_min rw remote temperature 2 minimum threshold for alarm
+temp3_min_alarm ro remote temperature 2 minimum threshold alarm
+
+MAX1668 and MAX1989 only:
+temp4_input ro remote temperature 3
+temp4_max rw remote temperature 3 maximum threshold for alarm
+temp4_max_alarm ro remote temperature 3 maximum threshold alarm
+temp4_min rw remote temperature 3 minimum threshold for alarm
+temp4_min_alarm ro remote temperature 3 minimum threshold alarm
+temp5_input ro remote temperature 4
+temp5_max rw remote temperature 4 maximum threshold for alarm
+temp5_max_alarm ro remote temperature 4 maximum threshold alarm
+temp5_min rw remote temperature 4 minimum threshold for alarm
+temp5_min_alarm ro remote temperature 4 minimum threshold alarm
+
+Module Parameters
+-----------------
+
+* read_only: int
+ Set to non-zero if you wish to prevent write access to alarm thresholds.
