While it is possible to force SMBus-based hardware monitoring chip
drivers to drive a not officially supported device, we do not have this
possibility for Super-I/O-based drivers. That's unfortunate because
sometimes newer chips are fully compatible and just forcing the driver
to load would work. Instead of that we have to tell the users to
recompile the kernel driver, which isn't an easy task for everyone.So, I propose that we add a module parameter to all Super-I/O based
hardware monitoring drivers, letting advanced users force the driver
to load on their machine. The user has to provide the device ID of a
supposedly compatible device. This requires looking at the source code or
a datasheet, so I am confident that users can't randomly force a driver
without knowing what they are doing. Thus this should be relatively safe.As you can see from the code, the implementation is pretty simple and
unintrusive.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

pc87360: Check for error on sysfs files creation
Use sysfs_create_group() for 2 sensor-types which are chip-model
invariant, i.e. all-or-nothing attribute groups.
Other 2 groups vary too much due to configuration, etc, so we keep the
loops of device_create_file(), but now check their returns.Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie

pc87360: Delete sysfs files on device deletion
Add 4 explicit attribute groups for the 5 sensor types:
voltage (in), therm, temp, and fan & pwm (together in one group).
Use sysfs_remove_group() to drop them, but keeps the existing
startup code, which calls device_create_file in loops.Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie

pc87360: Move some code around
Moves code for get-set-decl tuples for 3 items: cpu0_vid, vrm, alarms_in
up, to just after the get-set-decl tuple for voltages.
These items are already 'activated' together with the rest of the
voltage attributes, so the move tightens the grouping that's made
explicit in next patch.Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie

i2c-isa: Restore driver owner
Commit 2b48716d1d2f2edb1e7cbc5ecf1cb2cb39373e33 back in January
2006 was a bit overzealous. It removed .owner from all i2c drivers,
including i2c-isa ones, while they still need it.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Now that i2c_add_driver() doesn't need the module owner to be set by
hand, we can delete it from the drivers. This patch catches all of the
drivers that I found in the current tree (if a driver sets the .owner by
hand, it's not a problem, just not needed.)Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

pc87360: number-skew to init
The temp, therm, fan, pwm callbacks all have an offset skew in the code
which accommodates attribute numbering conventions under
/sys/bus/i2c/devices/9191-6620/ (ie they start at 1)This patch moves that skew into the declaration, and out of the
functions (except for therm, where we simplify from 2 skews to 1). The
declarative skew is clearer, less error-prone, and more efficient.The use of 11+offset-4 below reflects the fact that the sysfs numbering
of these units is 4, 5, 6, but they use internal VLM units 11, 12, 13 to
measure the thermistor voltages.There's one remaining skew factor, in *_crit callbacks below, because
there are no critical thresholds for voltages 0-10, only for those
supporting the thermistors.Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie

Use the new "dynamic sysfs callbacks", as introduced recently by Yani
Ioannou, in pc87360.Note that this change isn't indiscriminate. Only those attributes that
would benefit from having an index (i.e., those which are
macro-repeated) have been converted.This significantly shrinks the size of the module:
before: 49235 drivers/hwmon/pc87360.ko

The only part left in i2c-sensor is the VRM/VRD/VID handling code.
This is in no way related to i2c, so it doesn't belong there. Move
the code to hwmon, where it belongs.Note that not all hardware monitoring drivers do VRM/VRD/VID
operations, so less drivers depend on hwmon-vid than there were
depending on i2c-sensor.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Super-I/O find functions in hardware monitoring drivers can be tagged
__init as they are only called from functions themselves tagged __init.
Two of them (smsc47b397 and w83627ehf) already do, but the other four
of them (it87, pc87360, smsc47m1 and w83627hf) did not.This saves a few bytes of memory after the drivers are loaded, 192 in
the case of the it87 driver.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Call the ISA chip drivers detection function directly instead of relying
on i2c_detect. The net effect is that address lists won't be handled
anymore, but they were mostly useless in the ISA case anyway (pc87360,
smsc47m1, smsc47b397 had already dropped them).We don't need to handle multiple devices, all we may need is a way to
force a given address instead of the original one (some drivers already
do: sis5595, via686a, w83627hf), and, for drivers supporting multiple
chips, a way to force one given kind. All this may be added later on
demand, but I actually don't think there will be much demand.Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Convert the 10 ISA hardware monitoring drivers (it87, lm78, pc87360,
sis5595, smsc47b397, smsc47m1, via686a, w83627hf, w83627ehf, w83781d) to
explicitely register with i2c-isa. For hybrid drivers (it87, lm78,
w83781d), we now have two separate instances of i2c_driver, one for the
I2C interface of the chip, and one for ISA interface. In the long run,
the one for ISA will be replaced with a different driver type.At this point, all drivers are working again, except for missing
dependencies in Kconfig.Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
