Take incompressibility of gas into account at higher pressures
This creates a helper function called "gas_volume()" that takes the cylinder and a particular pressure, and returns the estimated volume of the gas at surface pressure, including proper approximation of the incompressibility of gas. It very much is an approximation, but it's closer to reality than assuming a pure ideal gas. See for example compressibility at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor Suggested-by: Jukka Lind <jukka.lind@iki.fi> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
