lib: polynomial: move to math/ subfolder

2026-03-28T04:19:39+00:00

Patch series "lib: polynomial: Move to math/ and clean up", v2. While removing Baikal SoC and platform code pieces I found that this code belongs to lib/math/ rather than generic lib/. Hence the move and followed up cleanups. This patch (of 3): The algorithm behind polynomial belongs to our collection of math equations and expressions handling. Move it to math/ subfolder where others of the kind are located.

lib: add generic polynomial calculation

2022-05-22T18:32:30+00:00

Some temperature and voltage sensors use a polynomial to convert between raw data points and actual temperature or voltage. The polynomial is usually the result of a curve fitting of the diode characteristic. The BT1 PVT hwmon driver already uses such a polynonmial calculation which is rather generic. Move it to lib/ so other drivers can reuse it.
