  Description
  -----------
  
  This driver implements support for the Sensirion SHTC1 chip, a humidity and
  temperature sensor. Temperature is measured in degrees celsius, relative
  humidity is expressed as a percentage. Driver can be used as well for SHTW1
  chip, which has the same electrical interface.
  
  The device communicates with the I2C protocol. All sensors are set to I2C
  address 0x70. See Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices for methods to
  instantiate the device.
  
  There are two options configurable by means of shtc1_platform_data:
  1. blocking (pull the I2C clock line down while performing the measurement) or
     non-blocking mode. Blocking mode will guarantee the fastest result but
     the I2C bus will be busy during that time. By default, non-blocking mode
     is used. Make sure clock-stretching works properly on your device if you
     want to use blocking mode.
  2. high or low accuracy. High accuracy is used by default and using it is
     strongly recommended.
