Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 095/110] hwmon: (ntc_thermistor) Ensure iio channel is of type IIO_VOLTAGE

3.16.7-ckt13 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Chris Lesiak <chris.lesiak@...or.com>

commit adba657533bdd255f7b78bc8a324091f46b294cd upstream.

When configured via device tree, the associated iio device needs to be
measuring voltage for the conversion to resistance to be correct.
Return -EINVAL if that is not the case.
