The hwmon_device_register() is deprecated. When I try to repace it with

the power channel attribute in linux/hwmon.h have to extend and is more
than 32 after this replacement.
However, the maximum number of hwmon channel attributes is 32 which is
limited by current hwmon codes. This is not good to add new channel
attribute for some hwmon sensor type and support more channel attribute.
This series are aimed to do this. And also make sure that acpi_power_meter
driver can successfully replace the deprecated hwmon_device_register()
later.
Avoid combining independent patches into one patch bomb. Or explain the
dependencies and how is it supposed to be merged - that's why you have
cover letter here.
These patches having a title ('Use HWMON_CHANNEL_INFO macro to simplify
code') are also for this series.
Or we need to modify the type of the 'xxx_config' array in these patches.
If we directly use the macro HWMON_CHANNEL_INFO, the type of 'config'
has been modifyed in patch 1/21 and these driver don't need to care this
change.
