Description:
(RO) return the temperature in 1/1000 degC.
- Note that the conversion duration depend on the resolution (if
- device support this feature). It takes 94ms in 9bits
- resolution, 750ms for 12bits.
+ * If a bulk read has been triggered, it will directly
+ return the temperature computed when the bulk read
+ occurred, if available. If not yet available, nothing
+ is returned (a debug kernel message is sent), you
+ should retry later on.
+ * If no bulk read has been triggered, it will trigger
+ a conversion and send the result. Note that the

+ device support this feature). It takes 94ms in 9bits

+Description:
+ (RW) trigger a bulk read conversion. read the status
+ *read*:
+ * '-1': conversion in progress on at least 1 sensor
+ * '1' : conversion complete but at least one sensor
+ value has not been read yet
+ * '0' : no bulk operation. Reading temperature will
+ trigger a conversion on each device
+ *write*: 'trigger': trigger a bulk read on all supporting
+ devices on the bus
+ Note that if a bulk read is sent but one sensor is not read
+ immediately, the next access to temperature on this device
+ will return the temperature measured at the time of issue
+ of the bulk read command (not the current temperature).
