ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: use a separate platform device for hwmon and name it (v2)
Use a separate platform device and driver ("thinkpad_hwmon") to attach hwmon attributes and class, and add a name attribute of "thinkpad" to it, which defines the hwmon device name for libsensors4. This makes thinkpad-acpi compatible with libsensors4 from lm-sensors, and the platform driver and device split will make it much easier to separate hwmon functionality into its own module later on.
