If that means that for example the ACPI thermal zone is no longer displayed by "sensors", then I strongly object - unless it is explicitly registered as a separate hwmon device from now on, of course. My idea was to make the bridge optional - you decide when you register a thermal device if it should be exposed as hwmon or not. I don't have a strong opinion on the implementation, as long as each input is listed by "sensors" once and only once. -- Jean Delvare -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
