Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (w83627ehf): fix broken driver init

Commit 2265cef2 (hwmon: (w83627ehf) Properly report PECI and AMD-SI
sensor types) results in kernel panic if data->temp_label was not
initialized.
The problem was found with chip W83627DHG-P.

backtrace:
page_fault()
w83627ehf_probe() 0x8e2

w83627ehf_init_device:
1837:	for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
		const char *label = data->temp_label[data->temp_src[i]];

		/* Digital source overrides analog type */
		if (strncmp(label, "PECI", 4) == 0)
			data->temp_type[i] = 6;

	movzbl	128(%r14), %edx	# data->temp_src, tmp737
	movq	144(%r13), %rax	# data_32->temp_label, data_32->temp_label
	movq	$.LC18, %rsi	#,
	movl	%r14d, %r15d	#, i
	subl	%r13d, %r15d	# D.29277, i
0x928	movq	(%rax,%rdx,8), %rcx	#* data_32->temp_label, label
	movl	$4, %edx	#,
	movq	%rcx, %rdi	# label,
	movq	%rcx, -96(%rbp)	#,
	call	strncmp	#

page_fault() is called at 0x928 (0x8e2+0x46).

Add check if data->temp->label was set before use.
