Documentation/hwmon/bcm6123 is missing.

Is this a power supply or a chip ? It can't be both.

Does it not ? The datasheet doesn't say, and the code below doesn't match
this description.

Does it ? There is no reference for this in the datasheet.

Overall it seems like there is a lot of cut-and-paste. Please clean this up.

We should only set this flag if it is really needed.

This needs further explanation. The public datasheet doesn't say anything
about multiple pages, and it doesn't really make much sense to have an
"empty" page with no information in it.
