[v3 PATCH] hwmon: (pmbus) disable PEC if not enabled

[Adam Wujek <dev_public@wujek.eu>]

Explicitly disable PEC when the client does not support it.
The problematic scenario is the following. A device with enabled PEC
support is up and running and a kernel driver is loaded.
Then the driver is unloaded (or device unbound), the HW device
is reconfigured externally (e.g. by i2cset) to advertise itself as not
supporting PEC. Without a new code, at the second load of the driver
(or bind) the "flags" variable is not updated to avoid PEC usage. As a
consequence the further communication with the device is done with
the PEC enabled, which is wrong and may fail.

The implementation first disable the I2C_CLIENT_PEC flag, then the old
code enable it if needed.

Notes:
    Changes in v2:
    - Rebase to the latest kernel
    - Update commit message

    Changes in v3:
    - Rework the patch, disable the flag first, then enable if needed.
      Adding three else statements to disable the flag will make the code
      less readable.
    - Update commit message
