iio: proximity: vl53l0x-i2c: claim direct mode for raw readsgrafted
vl53l0x_read_raw() starts a single-shot ranging measurement and reads back the result. Once the triggered buffer is enabled the sensor runs in continuous mode and its data-ready interrupt is routed to the trigger, so a concurrent in_distance_raw read disturbs the streaming setup and never gets its completion, returning -ETIMEDOUT. The original submission claimed direct mode here, but it was dropped during review because the driver had no buffer support at the time [1]. Continuous (buffered) mode was later added without restoring the claim [2], reintroducing the conflict. Reject direct reads while buffered capture is active by claiming direct mode around the measurement, as the vl53l1x sibling already does.

+The Linux kernel user's and administrator's guide
+=================================================
+
+The following is a collection of user-oriented documents that have been
+added to the kernel over time. There is, as yet, little overall order or
+organization here — this material was not written to be a single, coherent
+document! With luck things will improve quickly over time.
+
+General guides to kernel administration
+---------------------------------------
+
+This initial section contains overall information, including the README
+file describing the kernel as a whole, documentation on kernel parameters,
+etc.

+ features
+
+A big part of the kernel's administrative interface is the /proc and sysfs
+virtual filesystems; these documents describe how to interact with tem

+Workload analysis
