Re: [PATCH] hwmon: (oxp-sensors) Add tt_toggle attribute on supported boards

Hello again. And sorry for my late reply. I'm struggling to find a
good solution to this functionality. It most definitely feels icky to
be attached to the hwmon driver so it should be a different driver for
those devices. Would misc be a good place for that single toggle? or
maybe platform? The latter seems most fitting since is very device
specific.

By no means I intend to avoid review. Don't get me wrong. I'm trying
to understand what the best practice would be in this scenario. The
driver is part reverse engineering and part asking contacts from the
manufacturer (who is no longer in the company so it is reverse
engineering at this point). So any new functionality we find might be
a different driver for what i gather since it is not related to
hardware monitoring. The oxp-sensors as is now it is mostly done and
it works well for the users.

Thanks for your review and explanation. Any pointers would be greatly
appreciated.
