While it is possible to force SMBus-based hardware monitoring chip
drivers to drive a not officially supported device, we do not have this
possibility for Super-I/O-based drivers. That's unfortunate because
sometimes newer chips are fully compatible and just forcing the driver
to load would work. Instead of that we have to tell the users to
recompile the kernel driver, which isn't an easy task for everyone.
So, I propose that we add a module parameter to all Super-I/O based
hardware monitoring drivers, letting advanced users force the driver
to load on their machine. The user has to provide the device ID of a
supposedly compatible device. This requires looking at the source code or
a datasheet, so I am confident that users can't randomly force a driver
without knowing what they are doing. Thus this should be relatively safe.
As you can see from the code, the implementation is pretty simple and
unintrusive.

The smsc47m1 driver no longer creates the name attribute used by
libsensors to identify chip types. It was lost during the conversion
to a platform driver. I was fooled by the fact that we do have a
group with all attributes, but only to delete them all at once. The
group is not used to create the attributes, so we have to explicitly
create the name attribute.

Fix a potential race condition when some hardware monitoring platform
drivers are being unloaded. I believe that the driver data pointer
shouldn't be cleared before all the sysfs files are removed, otherwise
a sysfs callback might attempt to dereference a NULL pointer. I'm not
sure exactly what the driver core protects drivers against, so let's
play it safe.
While we're here, clear the driver data pointer when probe fails, so
as to not leave an invalid pointer behind us.

The smsc47m1 driver uses a mutex to protect the accesses to the
hardware registers. It really doesn't need any protection, as the
register space is flat. Get rid of that mutex for a smaller and
faster driver.

The SMSC LPC47M112 Super-I/O chip appears to be compatible with the

The device ID is even the same, so it's really only a documentation

i2c-isa: Restore driver owner
Commit 2b48716d1d2f2edb1e7cbc5ecf1cb2cb39373e33 back in January
2006 was a bit overzealous. It removed .owner from all i2c drivers,
including i2c-isa ones, while they still need it.

Now that i2c_add_driver() doesn't need the module owner to be set by
hand, we can delete it from the drivers. This patch catches all of the
drivers that I found in the current tree (if a driver sets the .owner by
hand, it's not a problem, just not needed.)

The only thing left in i2c-sensor.h are module parameter definition
macros. It's only an extension of what i2c.h offers, and this extension
is not sensors-specific. As a matter of fact, a few non-sensors drivers
use them. So we better merge them in i2c.h, and get rid of i2c-sensor.h
altogether.

Super-I/O find functions in hardware monitoring drivers can be tagged
__init as they are only called from functions themselves tagged __init.
Two of them (smsc47b397 and w83627ehf) already do, but the other four
of them (it87, pc87360, smsc47m1 and w83627hf) did not.
This saves a few bytes of memory after the drivers are loaded, 192 in
the case of the it87 driver.

Call the ISA chip drivers detection function directly instead of relying
on i2c_detect. The net effect is that address lists won't be handled
anymore, but they were mostly useless in the ISA case anyway (pc87360,
smsc47m1, smsc47b397 had already dropped them).
We don't need to handle multiple devices, all we may need is a way to
force a given address instead of the original one (some drivers already
do: sis5595, via686a, w83627hf), and, for drivers supporting multiple
chips, a way to force one given kind. All this may be added later on
demand, but I actually don't think there will be much demand.

Convert the 10 ISA hardware monitoring drivers (it87, lm78, pc87360,
sis5595, smsc47b397, smsc47m1, via686a, w83627hf, w83627ehf, w83781d) to
explicitely register with i2c-isa. For hybrid drivers (it87, lm78,
w83781d), we now have two separate instances of i2c_driver, one for the
I2C interface of the chip, and one for ISA interface. In the long run,
the one for ISA will be replaced with a different driver type.
At this point, all drivers are working again, except for missing
dependencies in Kconfig.

The adm9240 driver, in adm9240_detect(), allocates a structure. The
error path attempts to kfree() ->client field of it (second one),
resulting in an oops (or slab corruption) if the hardware is not present.
->client field in adm1026, adm1031, smsc47b397 and smsc47m1 is the first in
${HWMON}_data structure, but fix them too.
