Some PMBus chips have non-standard sensor registers. An easy way to
support such sensors is to introduce virtual pages and map the non-standard
registers into standard registers on an extra page.
For this to work, the code verifying if the configured number of pages exists
has to be removed. Since a wrong number of pages can only be configured in a
front-end driver, this should not have a practical impact since the resulting
errors should be found during development and testing.
