The patch does not add support for a driver, it adds support for a chip.

Documentation is missing.
Documentation is in patch one ([PATCH v1 1/2] dt-bindings: hwmon: Add lltc ltc4286 driver bindings)
Documentation/hwmon/ltc4286.rst is expected in this patch and not as
part of the bindings. The bindings do not document the driver,
they document the chip bindings.

There is no LTC4287 according to information available in public.
It has not even be announced.
Besides, the above enum is not really used anywhere and therefore has zero
value. Maybe the LTC4287 is not yet released. Even then, there is no value
listing it here because its parameters seem to be identical to LTC4286.
It has been announced on Analog Devices website.
No, it has not.
Please refer to this link: https://www.analog.com/en/products/ltc2487.html#product-overview
enum chips { ltc4286 = 0, ltc4287 };
Use in v1 line 118 to list chip index instead of hardcoding
ltc2487 is _not_ ltc4287.
^^ ^^
Sure, a Google search for LTC4287 returns a link to LTC2487 (!) as first response,
but LTC2487 is an ADC and has nothing but the manufacturer in common with LTC4286.
LTC4286 High Power Positive Hot-Swap Controller with Power Monitor via PMBus
LTC2487 16-Bit 2-/4-Channel ∆Σ ADC with PGA, Easy Drive and I2C Interface
I _really_ do not understand what you are trying to do here or why.

There should be a default for systems not supporting devicetree.

The value for rsense depends on hardware engineer in each manufacturer

This just takes the current configuration, and assumes it is the default.
That may not be correct. The chip may have been configured by the BIOS, or
manually.
The MBR values are based on hardware design, so it must be set in initial stage
+ }
+
The code assumes that there is only a single chip in the system, or that the
configuration of all chips is identical. This is not necessarily correct.
If there are more than one LTC4286 or LTC4287 chips, user can add the configuration for different chips in dts file
"info" is a pointer to a static variable.
info = <c4286_info;
In this context, what you are saying above does not make sense. The
second chip's configuration will override the first chip's configuration.
info->m[PSC_POWER] = 4 * rsense;

No, sorry, this still does not make sense.

Please read my comment. I am saying that it does not make sense to provide the chip ID
to i2c_device_id but not in of_device_id. Either add it do both if needed or not at
all. I am not telling which one, I am just asking for consistency.
However, as mentioned earlier, according to your code the chips supposedly have identical
functionality. Separate chip IDs (ltc4286 and ltc4287) therefore seem unnecessary (not
even counting the fact that ltc4287 still does not seem to exist).
