Guenter Roeck,
I will define a new hwmon sysfs attribute node called 
"hwmon_tachometer_attributes" in hwmon.h like below and update the same 
in tachometer hwmon driver. Is it fine ?
enum hwmon_tachometer_attributes {
         hwmon_tachometer_rpm,
};

I will take care in next version of patches.

Sure, will take care.

I will take care.
