Description
-----------

The AHT10/AHT20 is a Temperature and Humidity sensor

The address of this i2c device may only be 0x38

Special Features
----------------

AHT20 has additional CRC8 support which is sent as the last byte of the sensor
values.

Usage Notes
-----------

This driver does not probe for AHT10/ATH20 devices, as there is no reliable
way to determine if an i2c chip is or isn't an AHT10/AHT20. The device has
to be instantiated explicitly with the address 0x38. See
Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices.rst for details.

Sysfs entries
