This driver does NOT only run on PowerPC; rather it runs on a BMC
processor connected to a PowerPC processor. BMC will most likely be ARM,
but shouldn't be restricted to that arch only.
Also drop configuration symbol SENSORS_OCC which serves no purpose
that I can see.

SENSORS_OCC *would* serve a purpose if the common code between the
POWER8 driver and the POWER9 driver would go in a separate, shared
module, and occ-p8-hwmon and occ-p9-hwmon would only contain the
specific code. This would avoid packaging the same code twice in 2
separate modules, therefore saving some storage space for ppc
distributions.
Well you'd never have both P8 and P9 enabled at once, so space shouldn't
be an issue. I agree this could be cleaner but I think I was getting
duplicate symbol errors for the compile test and so I did it this way.
If this doesn't lead to errors in the compile test, I'm fine with this
(without the change for PPC only though).
Thanks,
Eddie
As far as I can see, this would simply require exporting 2 functions
(occ_setup and occ_shutdown). Is there any reason why things were not
done that way in the first place? This would look cleaner to me.

This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module will be
called occ-p9-hwmon.
