Adding ext_power sysfs entry (RO). Return the power status of the device: - 0: device parasite powered - 1: device externally powered - xx: xx is kernel error The power status of each device is check when the device is discover by the bus master, in 'w1_therm_add_slave(struct w1_slave *)'. The status is stored in the device structure w1_therm_family_data so that the driver always knows the power state of each device, which could be used later to determine the required strong pull up to apply on the line. The power status is re evaluate each time the sysfs ext_power read by a user. The hardware function 'read_powermode(struct w1_slave *sl)' act just as per device specifications, sending W1_READ_PSUPPLY command on the bus, and issue a read time slot, reading only one bit. A helper function 'bool bus_mutex_lock(struct mutex *lock)' is introduced. It try to aquire the bus mutex several times (W1_THERM_MAX_TRY), waiting W1_THERM_RETRY_DELAY between two attempt. Updating Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-driver-w1_therm accordingly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
