Subject: [PATCH 3.16 097/346] hwmon: (adt7411) set bit 3 in CFG1 register

3.16.39-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Michael Walle <michael@...le.cc>

commit b53893aae441a034bf4dbbad42fe218561d7d81f upstream.

According to the datasheet you should only write 1 to this bit. If it is
not set, at least AIN3 will return bad values on newer silicon revisions.

Fixes: d84ca5b345c2 ("hwmon: Add driver for ADT7411 voltage and temperature sensor")
