In a way you are correct, but that applies to all hwmon
drivers, not just to this one. A solution which only applies
to a single driver doesn't solve the underlying problem,
which would be the desire or need to provide kernel-based
scaling for hwmon drivers. As such, I am not inclined to accept
this patch. We should think about a generic solution instead.

Note that this patch doesn't compile on 32-bit targets.

Thanks,
