Preliminary note: if the chip is on an embedded platform where you can
declare the devices as platform data, writing a new-style I2C driver
would probably be easier. This would save you the detection step (which
I am not sure is very reliable) and device configuration would also be
much easier.

I have some random comments on top of what Andrew already wrote:

What's the unit of ads7828_lsb_resol?

All these parameters deserve some documentation in
Documentation/hwmon/ads7828. See the other files in this directory for
the expected format. Note that it is usual to not include the driver
name in the parameter names.

What do you need this ID for? The I2C driver ID is optional and in most
cases hardware monitoring-drivers don't need any, so you can just omit it.

sysfs, not sysctl.

Please rename this to just "client".

ch doesn't need to be initialized here. (In fact it doesn't even need
to be declared here - same for cmd and in_data below.)

You're not using byte-size transactions, and you're never writing to
the device, so I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_READ_WORD_DATA is enough.

This is redundant with the above memset (or kzalloc).

You're using this formula several times in the driver, it would
probably be worth having a macro or even better, an inline function for
it.

Please use dev_dbg(&adapter->dev, ...) instead, that way the user knows
what I2C bus was being probed. It might also be a good idea to include
the chip address in the log message. The function name OTOH doesn't
seem particularly useful to me.

Please use swab16(), as the lm75 driver and many others do.

It doesn't make sense to initialize these values as part of the device
initialization, given that these are global variables that are shared
by all devices. Either make these per-device values, or initialize them
on driver load (in sensors_ads7828_init.)
