It doesn't change anything, the trailing coma isn't relevant.

This is a problem with the Suse kernel sources. These are not the
vanilla sources, they do some weird stuff that prevent our code from
compiling properly. We already had several reports of this.
We cannot support random changes from all distributors. Either use Suse
packages for lm_sensors, or switch to a vanilla kernel before compiling
from our sources.
