Great stuff, merged with a few minor whitespace/typo fixes and such,
thanks a lot! I also added your (missing) copyright line to bm25x.c :)

One minor thing to check though, we only use the _SER and -ser suffixes
in serial-dmm driver names when there are multiple cables/methods to get
data from the DMM. This is the case for e.g. the UNI-T UT61D, which can
be used with either a USB/HID based cable or with a simple RS232
cable (the drivers are thus named uni-t-ut61d and uni-t-ut61d-ser).

If this distinction is not relevant for this Brymen DMM (because there's
only one possible cable) we can/should drop the _SER/-ser etc. suffixes.


Also, could you please add some info (and photos) about your DMM + cable in
our sigrok.org wiki if possible? Ideally there should be a page for the
specific DMM you have (which one is it btw?), something like this:

http://sigrok.org/wiki/Brymen_BM857

That page should be linked from here (marking the DMM as supported as well):

http://sigrok.org/wiki/Supported_hardware

In addition we might make a "Brymen BMxxx series" page similar to these
eventually (not a priority right now, though):

http://sigrok.org/wiki/Rigol_DS2000_series

Also, it would be great to have some info and photos of the BC-20X
cable, listed here alongside the other Brymen cables:

http://sigrok.org/wiki/Device_cables#Brymen_BC-85X.28-1.29


Please let me know which wiki username you prefer, and/or join us on
the #sigrok IRC channel on FreeNode to get a wiki account, if you're
interested in adding the above content and photos etc.


Cheers, Uwe.
