The problem is that the device passed to clear_caseopen() is the hwmon
device, not the platform device, and the platform data is not set in
the hwmon device. Store the pointer to sio_data in struct
nct6775_data and get if from there if needed.

What do you think about remove kind field also from struct
nct6775_data? Code has copy of this field inside of the struct
nct6775_sio_data.

I thought about it, but it would add a level of indirection to
each access, and it is used for each register access (through
is_word_sized). That would make the change pretty expensive
in terms of runtime cost.
