hwmon: (lm90) Fix handling of hysteresis value
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.
