The ad525x_dpot driver exports a simple sysfs interface. This allows you to
work with the immediate resistance settings as well as update the saved startup
interpretation of this settings is required by the end application according to
the specific part in use.

Each dpot device will have a set of eeprom, rdac, and tolerance files. How
many depends on the actual part you have, as will the range of allowed values.

as a hex file for easier parsing.

+Example
+=======
Locate the device in your sysfs tree. This is probably easiest by going into
-the common i2c directory and locating the device by the i2c slave address.
+the common i2c directory and locating the device by the i2c slave address::
# ls /sys/bus/i2c/devices/
0-0022 0-0027 0-002f
So assuming the device in question is on the first i2c bus and has the slave
-address of 0x2f, we descend (unrelated sysfs entries have been trimmed).

-You can use simple reads/writes to access these files:
