Vincent Jardin d20f04fb30 hwmon: (pmbus/core) notify on the hwmon device, not the i2c client
commit a64a7e8a0b upstream.

pmbus_notify() calls sysfs_notify() and kobject_uevent() on the i2c
client's kobject, but the alarm attributes live on the hwmon class
device registered by pmbus_do_probe(). Notifying the parent i2c device
is a no-op for both poll(POLLPRI) waiters and udev listeners: the named
attribute does not exist on that kobject.

Notify the hwmon device instead, so poll() wakes up and "change"
uevents fire on the inX_alarm/tempX_alarm attributes when SMBALERT#
reports a fault.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
