hwmon: (w83627hf) don't assume bank 0
The bank switching code assumes that the bank selector is set to 0
when the driver is loaded. This might not be the case. This is exactly
the same bug as was fixed in the w83627ehf driver two months ago:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=0956895aa6f8dc6a33210967252fd7787652537d
In practice, this bug was causing the sensor thermal types to be
improperly reported for my W83627THF the first time I was loading the
w83627hf driver. From the driver history, I'd say that it has been
broken since September 2005 (when we stopped resetting the chip by
default at driver load.)
