Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: lm75: Use zero lm75_type for lm75

There is a logical flaw in lm75_probe() function introduced in

e97a45f1b460 ("hwmon: (lm75) Add OF device ID table")

Note, that of_device_get_match_data() returns NULL when no match
found. This is the case when OF node exists but has unknown
compatible line, while the module is still loaded via i2c
detection.

arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/p2041rdb.dts:

lm75b@48 {
compatible = "nxp,lm75a";
reg = <0x48>;
};

In this case, the sensor is mistakenly considered as ADT75 variant.
The simplest way to handle this issue is to make the LM75 code
zero.

Correct. But relying on a bug doesn't improve the situation.
The above compatible strings need to be documented (and properly
implemented), or removed. And we really need a better means to handle
NULL returns from of_device_get_match_data(). Maybe we should use
of_match_device() instead and check for a NULL return.

This doesn't really solve the problem since it would match _all_
non-existing entries with lm75 (instead of whatever is intended).
That doesn't matter for lm75a, but it would matter if someone
would enter, say, "bla,adt75".

On a side note, "nxp,lm75a" (nor "nxp,lm75", for that matter) is not a
documented compatible string for this driver. If anything, we would
need a means to explicitly reject such undefined compatible strings.
One option might be to define the first entry in enum lm75_type
explicitly as invalid, check for it and reject it if returned.

else needs to be in { } to match if.

Looks good, but we'll also need a solution for the existing devicetree
nodes since they are being used. The best solution would probably
be to document and add "nxp,lm75a" to the list of devicetree nodes.
The same applies to other used but not documented compatible strings
(I think you sent a list earlier if I recall correctly).

Sorry that I didn't bring this up earlier, but I am concerned that
if we don't do this, this patch might be considered a regression.

It just has to be handled in one series, best with the compatible string(s)
introduced first and then this patch as last patch of the series.
