Subject: [PATCH v3] hwmon: (aquacomputer_d5next) Add selective 200ms delay after sending ctrl report

Add a 200ms delay after sending a ctrl report to Quadro,
Octo, D5 Next and Aquaero to give them enough time to
process the request and save the data to memory. Otherwise,
under heavier userspace loads where multiple sysfs entries
are usually set in quick succession, a new ctrl report could
be requested from the device while it's still processing the
previous one and fail with -EPIPE. The delay is only applied
if two ctrl report operations are near each other in time.

Reported by a user on Github [1] and tested by both of us.

Changes in v3:
- Reworked code to track the last time of a ctrl report
operation and only delay if necessary, as per suggestion

Changes in v2:
- Added missing <linux/delay.h> include

I would have suggested to use fsleep() to avoid unnecessary
sleep times if they are small, bt I guess it doesn't make much
of a difference.

Applied.

Will keep that in mind.

Will this patch perhaps be marked for stable?

It has a Fixes: tag, so it will be applied to affected stable releases
automatically, at least if it applies cleanly. I could have added Cc:
stable@ to make it explicit, but I had pushed it already, and I didn't
want to rebase the branch just for that.

Didn't know explicit Cc wasn't necessary, thanks.

Preferred but not necessary. You should have received an e-mail telling
you that the patch did not apply to 6.1.y. If you want it applied there,
send a backport to stable@ with a subject such as [PATCH v6.1] ...
and backport comments after "---".
