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.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +======================== +BFS Filesystem for Linux +======================== + +The BFS filesystem is used by SCO UnixWare OS for the /stand slice, which +usually contains the kernel image and a few other files required for the +boot process. + +In order to access /stand partition under Linux you obviously need to +know the partition number and the kernel must support UnixWare disk slices +(CONFIG_UNIXWARE_DISKLABEL config option). However BFS support does not +depend on having UnixWare disklabel support because one can also mount +BFS filesystem via loopback:: + + # losetup /dev/loop0 stand.img + # mount -t bfs /dev/loop0 /mnt/stand + +where stand.img is a file containing the image of BFS filesystem. +When you have finished using it and umounted you need to also deallocate +/dev/loop0 device by:: + + # losetup -d /dev/loop0 + +You can simplify mounting by just typing:: + + # mount -t bfs -o loop stand.img /mnt/stand + +this will allocate the first available loopback device (and load loop.o +kernel module if necessary) automatically. If the loopback driver is not +loaded automatically, make sure that you have compiled the module and +that modprobe is functioning. Beware that umount will not deallocate +/dev/loopN device if /etc/mtab file on your system is a symbolic link to +/proc/mounts. You will need to do it manually using "-d" switch of +losetup(8).
