+In case of autodetection, the driver will use the "READ POWER SUPPLY"
+command to check if there are pariste powered devices on the bus.
+If so, it will activate the master's strong pullup.
+In case the detection of parasite devices using this command fails
+(seems to be the case with some DS18S20) the strong pullup can
+be force-enabled.
+If the strong pullup is enabled, the master's strong pullup will be
+driven when the conversion is taking place, provided the master driver
+does support the strong pullup (or it falls back to a pullup
resistor). The DS18b20 temperature sensor specification lists a
maximum current draw of 1.5mA and that a 5k pullup resistor is not
sufficient. The strong pullup is designed to provide the additional
