As am I.

I do agree that hwmon is obscure.  Almost everything about
anything is obscure to those that don't fully understand it.

I am unaware though of any use of "obsolete" in drivers/hwmon/
or in Documentation/ about hwmon or the wiki/

In what sense do you mean hwmon is obsolete?

And the cocci script?

Anything later than:
https://systeme.lip6.fr/pipermail/cocci/2016-December/003887.html
https://github.com/groeck/coccinelle-patches/tree/master/hwmon
?

btw: I think the perl scripts I posted for DEV_ATTR_<RW|RO|WO>
transforms are simpler and less prone to tool versioning
issues.

It'd be fairly simple to add SENSOR_ support.
