Ordinarily I'd be willing to try this, but in this case I wouldn't be
able to test the module on real hardware; it's an embedded system and
uses the 4.7 kernel at the moment.  Would you be OK with merging a fixed
version of this patch and I can throw together an untested variant using
hwmon_device_register_with_info() for future work?

My fault, I completely forgot to run checkpatch.  I'll get a V2 together
shortly including addressing the inline comments.
