    hwmon: (lm90) Fix handling of hysteresis value · ec38fa2b

    There are several problems in the way the hysteresis value is handled
    by the lm90 driver:
    
    * In show_temphyst(), specific handling of the MAX6646 is missing, so
      the hysteresis is reported incorrectly if the critical temperature
      is over 127 degrees C.
    * In set_temphyst(), the new hysteresis register value is written to
      the chip but data->temp_hyst isn't updated accordingly, so there is
      a short period of time (up to 2 seconds) where the old hystereris
      value will be returned while the new one is already active.
    * In set_temphyst(), the critical temperature which is used as a base
      to compute the value of the hysteresis register lacks
      device-specific handling. As a result, the value of the hysteresis
      register might be incorrect for the ADT7461 and MAX6646 chips.
    
    Fix these 3 bugs.
