The commit 1feb31e810b0 ("hwmon: (pmbus/mp2975) Simplify VOUT code")

device:
"""
mp2975 5-0020: Failed to identify chip capabilities

Since the 'read_byte_data' function was removed from the
'pmbus_driver_info ' structure the driver no longer reports correctly
that VOUT mode is direct. Therefore 'pmbus_identify_common' fails
with error, making it impossible to initialize the device.
Restore 'read_byte_data' function to fix the issue.
Tested:
- before: it is not possible to initialize MP2975 device with the
'mp2975' driver,
- after: 'mp2975' correctly initializes MP2975 device and all sensor
data is correct.

Changes in v4:
- Correct comment inside the 'mp2975_read_byte_data' function as
suggested by Patrick Rudolph
I already applied version 3 of the patch. Feel free to send a follow-up
to that patch. It is too late for a v4 of the original patch.
