Subject: [PATCH v4 4/4] hwmon: lm75: Handle broken device nodes gracefully

There is a logical flaw in lm75_probe() function introduced in

    e97a45f1b460 ("hwmon: (lm75) Add OF device ID table")

Note, that of_device_get_match_data() returns NULL when no match
is found. This is the case when OF node exists but has unknown
compatible line, while the module is still loaded via i2c
detection.

arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/p2041rdb.dts:

    lm75b@48 {
    	compatible = "nxp,lm75a";
    	reg = <0x48>;
    };

In this case, the sensor is mistakenly considered as ADT75 variant.

Fixes: e97a45f1b460 ("hwmon: (lm75) Add OF device ID table")
