As you wish. For the lm75 driver I decided to enforce what I thought
were sane per-chip defaults. My idea was that anyone not happy with
these would add and provide platform data to change it. I don't really
expect people to change the resolution of the sensor on-the-fly, but
maybe I'm wrong... It might make sense to do so to save power on some
platforms, I don't know. If you have any need for it, just make a
proposal for a new attribute and I'll review it.
