This describes my problem with this driver: All the sysfs attributes
described here are not really hardware monitoring related. A later patch
describes this in more detail:

"The OCC can provide the raw sensor data as well as perform thermal
 and power management on the system."

Is it possible to extract the non-hwmon functionality (maybe into an
mfd driver) and limit the hwmon part to just hardware monitoring ?
