[PATCH v2 0/2] scsi: mpt3sas: add hwmon support

[Louis Sautier <sautier.louis@gmail.com>]

Expose the IOC and board temperature sensors of LSI / Broadcom / Avago
SAS HBAs that bind to mpt3sas through the hwmon interface. The data
lives in MPI IO Unit Page 7.

The same fields are exposed by Broadcom's userspace tooling through
the /dev/mpt[23]ctl ioctl path (typically root-only): IOCTemperature
and BoardTemperature in lsiutil; ROC and Controller in storcli.
With this driver, sensors(1) shows them unprivileged:

  $ sensors mpt3sas-pci-0200
  mpt3sas-pci-0200
  Adapter: PCI adapter
  IOC:          +42.0°C

  * Dropped misleading Documentation/hwmon/mpt3sas.rst.
  * Dropped inaccurate concurrency-wait figure from Testing;
    corrected empirical data is in the on-list discussion.

Testing
-------

Validated across three Broadcom SAS chip generations. None of the
cards had a board sensor present, so the testing only covers the
IOC channel:

  * LSI 9500-8i / SAS3816, SAS-3:
    - hwmon device registers as "mpt3sas" with only temp1 (IOC) exposed
    - IOC reading matches `storcli /c0 show temperature` and
      `lsiutil -p1 -a 25,2,0,0`
    - rmmod / modprobe cycle goes through the explicit
      unregister/register paths cleanly

  * LSI 9305-24i / SAS3224, SAS-3: same behaviour.

  * LSI 9211-4i / SAS2004, SAS-2: firmware reports both
    *TemperatureUnits = NOT_PRESENT, no hwmon device registered
    (graceful-skip path).

Not verified (no available hardware):
  * Path with both IOC and board sensors present.
  * Fahrenheit-units conversion.
  * Sub-zero readings (signed-cast path).
