Subject: [PATCH 3.17 099/122] hwmon: (g762) fix call to devm_hwmon_device_register_with_groups()

3.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Arnaud Ebalard <arno@...isbad.org>

commit 6b19b66013cfe608d63f0dab38834bbaceb0217a upstream.

g762_remove() needs to first call hwmon_device_unregister() and then
g762_of_clock_disable(). For that reason, it is not possible to
convert it to devm_hwmon_device_register_with_groups() and the
the non device managed version must be used.

This is correctly stated in commit message for 398e16db6262 ("hwmon:
(g762) Convert to hwmon_device_register_with_groups") but the
associated changes do in fact introduce a call to the device managed
version of the function.

This patch fixes that typo by switching to the non devm_ version.
