+#include <asm/unaligned.h>
The common rule is to go from generic to particular, hence
linux/*
followed by
asm/*
followed by local subsystem / local headers like
linux/hwmon*
with a blank line between each group.
+#include <linux/acpi.h>
+#include <linux/dmi.h>
+#include <linux/hwmon.h>

+/* BLOCK_READ_EC */
Not sure what this means, but...
+#define ASUSWMI_METHODID_BREC 0x42524543
...above has definitely an ASCII combination in hex format, care to
decode it in the comment?
...
+/* from the ASUS DSDT source */
Keep the same style for all comments, i.e. here "From ..."
...
+#define MAKE_SENSOR_ADDRESS(size_i, bank_i, index_i) \
+ { .size = size_i,\
+ .bank = bank_i,\
+ .index = index_i}
You should choose one style for all macros. Here is one, there is
another... I would recommend to use one of
#define ... { \
... \
}
or
#define ... \
{ \
... \
}
In the second case the indentation of the {} is defined by the
semantics of the macro: in case of function-like macro it starts from
the first column, in case of data structure filler usually with one
TAB.
...
+/*
+ * All the known sensors for ASUS EC controllers
+ */
One line and "All known sensors..."
...
+struct asus_wmi_ec_info {
+ struct ec_sensor sensors[SENSOR_MAX];
+ char read_arg[((ASUSWMI_BREC_REGISTERS_MAX * 4) + 1) * 2];
Too many parentheses.

+ unsigned int nr_sensors;
+ unsigned int nr_registers;
+ unsigned long last_updated;
+};
...
+ for (i = 0; i < SENSOR_MAX && bsi[i] != SENSOR_MAX; i++) {
+ s[i].info_index = bsi[i];
+ s[i].cached_value = 0;
Isn't it filled by kzalloc() or alike?
+ ec->nr_sensors++;
+ ec->nr_registers += known_ec_sensors[bsi[i]].addr.size;

The comment above misses a lot of punctuation. Also it would be nice
to indent the list of items if any and so on.

Instead I would prefer to have to min_t() calls without adding castings.
Also might be useful to have a short comment explaining this choice.

Comment style.

Why is casting needed?
...

Logically better to keep &input and &output on the same line, i.e.
second one here.
+ obj = output.pointer;
+ if (!obj || obj->type != ACPI_TYPE_BUFFER) {
+ acpi_os_free(obj);
What's the point of calling acpi_os_free(obj) when you already know it's NULL?
On top of that is the acpi_os_free() high-level enough API for this?
+ return -EIO;

+ asus_wmi_ec_decode_reply_buffer(obj->buffer.pointer, out, obj->buffer.length);

Ditto.

Thanks for using KILO, but do you think it's the correct one and not MILLI?
MILLI means that we got value in <units> and we would like to convert
it to <milliunits>.
KILO would mean the opposite, like we got in <milliunits> and we would
like to have <units>.

{} will work as well.
