Hi all,
This tree fails (more than usual) the powerpc allyesconfig build.
Changes since 20131224:
on i386:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `lm75_remove':
lm75.c:(.text+0x12bd8c): undefined reference to `thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `lm75_probe':
lm75.c:(.text+0x12c123): undefined reference to `thermal_zone_of_sensor_register'
AFAICS that is a dependency problem in thermal code.
CONFIG_THERMAL=m defines the symbols, but CONFIG_SENSORS_LM75=y.
CONFIG_THERMAL_OF defines the symbols.
It looks to me like drivers/hwmon/Kconfig SENSORS_LM75 entry needs a
depends on THERMAL_OF
line, but that won't fix this build error.
The problem (once again, not the first time that I have seen this one) is that
we have a tristate =m that depends on a bool =y.
Hm, I bet a "depends on THERMAL" for SENSORS_LM75 will fix this.
[test]
Yes, that restricts (limits) SENSORS_LM75 to n/m; y is not possible.
Patch for your consideration is below.
Up to the thermal folks to fix; if the code ends up in mainline we'll have to
revert the patch introducing the calls to the lm75 driver (and the tmp102 driver
which has the same issue).
Another oddity is the help text to THERMAL_OF, which states that it supports
reading and parsing thermal data definitions out of dt but fails to mention
that it also provides the above API functions.

Fix SENSORS_LM75 dependencies to eliminate build errors:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `lm75_remove':
lm75.c:(.text+0x12bd8c): undefined reference to `thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `lm75_probe':
lm75.c:(.text+0x12c123): undefined reference to `thermal_zone_of_sensor_register'
Add depends on THERMAL_OF since that is what provides the
register/unregister functions above.
Add depends on THERMAL since THERMAL is a tristate (while THERMAL_OF
is a bool) and SENSORS_LM75 (tristate) needs to be limited to modular
builds when THERMAL=m.

If you say yes here you get support for one common type of
temperature sensor chip, with models including:
NACK. The driver does not and must not depend on THERMAL. This needs to be addressed
in the thermal code, for example with dummy declarations if THERMAL=m but
SENSORS_LM75=y. The functions are already declared as dummies if THERMAL_OF=n.
