[PATCH] hwmon: (ntc_thermistor) Add min and max temperature attributes

[Maud Spierings via B4 Relay <devnull+maudspierings.gocontroll.com@kernel.org>]

From: Maud Spierings <maudspierings@gocontroll.com>

Add the min and max temperature attributes as it is trivial for this
driver.

This can help with detecting implausible readings and indicates to users
which range they can actually measure, so they will not set a trip point
at a temperature higher than max or lower than min.

This implementation only works for ntcs, if a ptc gets added this will
have to be changed, but I'm not sure if that is ever the intention.
