Hi Eduardo,
Sorry for joining the discussion a little late, I could never find the
time to look into this patch series so far.

I am a bit worried by this. I did expect that you'd have to split a
piece of show_temp() into one separate function, not two. Here you have
quite some redundancy between lm75_read_temp and show_temp. Sure these
are small functions so the duplicate code is limited, but if you
multiply by the number of hwmon drivers which are candidates for this
change, this all adds up.

I am also worried by this interface. Basically a separate callback
function (here lm75_read_temp) is needed for every thermal input. Some
hwmon drivers have many of these! This will result in duplicate code
again. If you could just pass a sensor ID as an extra parameter to
lm75_read_temp, you could use the same callback for all sensors. This
would maybe also let you refactor the code above, as I believe
show_temp would then be able to call lm75_read_temp(dev, &temp, 0)
instead of reimplementing most of it.
I also note the lack of support for limits. Thermal zones can have
limits, and the various hwmon drivers do support that, yet your
interface offers no possibility to expose them. Wouldn't that be useful?

If you are doing that in all drivers, I would question the point of
having thermal_zone_of_sensor_register() return a PTR_ERR in the first
place.
