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.

+
+1. Usage
+~~~~~~~~
+The drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c drivers works with USB modems and USB ISDN terminal
+adapters that conform to the Universal Serial Bus Communication Device Class
+Abstract Control Model (USB CDC ACM) specification.
+
+Many modems do, here is a list of those I know of:
+
+ - 3Com OfficeConnect 56k
+ - 3Com Voice FaxModem Pro
+ - 3Com Sportster
+ - MultiTech MultiModem 56k
+ - Zoom 2986L FaxModem
+ - Compaq 56k FaxModem
+ - ELSA Microlink 56k
+
+I know of one ISDN TA that does work with the acm driver:
+
+ - 3Com USR ISDN Pro TA
+
+Some cell phones also connect via USB. I know the following phones work:
+
+ - SonyEricsson K800i
+
+Unfortunately many modems and most ISDN TAs use proprietary interfaces and
+thus won't work with this drivers. Check for ACM compliance before buying.
+
+To use the modems you need these modules loaded::
+
+ usbcore.ko
+ uhci-hcd.ko ohci-hcd.ko or ehci-hcd.ko
+ cdc-acm.ko
+
+After that, the modem[s] should be accessible. You should be able to use
+minicom, ppp and mgetty with them.
+
+2. Verifying that it works
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The first step would be to check /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices, it should look
+like this::
+
+ T: Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#= 1 Spd=12 MxCh= 2
+ B: Alloc= 0/900 us ( 0%), #Int= 0, #Iso= 0
+ D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 1
+ P: Vendor=0000 ProdID=0000 Rev= 0.00
+ S: Product=USB UHCI Root Hub
+ S: SerialNumber=6800
+ C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr= 0mA
+ I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=09(hub ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hub
+ E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 8 Ivl=255ms
+ T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 2 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
+ D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 2
+ P: Vendor=04c1 ProdID=008f Rev= 2.07
+ S: Manufacturer=3Com Inc.
+ S: Product=3Com U.S. Robotics Pro ISDN TA
+ S: SerialNumber=UFT53A49BVT7
+ C: #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=60 MxPwr= 0mA
+ I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=acm
+ E: Ad=85(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl= 0ms
+ E: Ad=04(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl= 0ms
+ E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 16 Ivl=128ms
+ C:* #Ifs= 2 Cfg#= 2 Atr=60 MxPwr= 0mA
+ I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=02 Prot=01 Driver=acm
+ E: Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 16 Ivl=128ms
+ I: If#= 1 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=0a(data ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=acm
+ E: Ad=85(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl= 0ms
+ E: Ad=04(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl= 0ms
+
+The presence of these three lines (and the Cls= 'comm' and 'data' classes)
+is important, it means it's an ACM device. The Driver=acm means the acm
+driver is used for the device. If you see only Cls=ff(vend.) then you're out
+of luck, you have a device with vendor specific-interface::
+
+ D: Ver= 1.00 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs= 2
+ I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=02(comm.) Sub=02 Prot=01 Driver=acm
+ I: If#= 1 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=0a(data ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=acm
+
+In the system log you should see::
+
+ usb.c: USB new device connect, assigned device number 2
+ usb.c: kmalloc IF c7691fa0, numif 1
+ usb.c: kmalloc IF c7b5f3e0, numif 2
+ usb.c: skipped 4 class/vendor specific interface descriptors
+ usb.c: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
+ usb.c: USB device number 2 default language ID 0x409
+ Manufacturer: 3Com Inc.
+ Product: 3Com U.S. Robotics Pro ISDN TA
+ SerialNumber: UFT53A49BVT7
+ acm.c: probing config 1
+ acm.c: probing config 2
+ ttyACM0: USB ACM device
+ acm.c: acm_control_msg: rq: 0x22 val: 0x0 len: 0x0 result: 0
+ acm.c: acm_control_msg: rq: 0x20 val: 0x0 len: 0x7 result: 7
+ usb.c: acm driver claimed interface c7b5f3e0
+ usb.c: acm driver claimed interface c7b5f3f8
+ usb.c: acm driver claimed interface c7691fa0
+
+If all this seems to be OK, fire up minicom and set it to talk to the ttyACM
+device and try typing 'at'. If it responds with 'OK', then everything is
+working.
