Subject: (bug report) HWMON & Thermal interactions

Hi,

Starting with v6.1-rc1 the SCMI HWMON driver failed probing on my JUNO due
to the fact that no trip points were (ever !) defined in the DT; bisecting it
looks like that after:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220804224349.1926752-28-daniel.lezcano@linexp.org/

the presence of the mandatory trips node within thermal zones is now
enforced.

So, this is NOT what this bug report is about (I'll post soon patches for
the JUNO DT missing trips) BUT once this problem was solved in the DT,
another issue appeared:

[    1.921929] hwmon hwmon0: temp2_input not attached to any thermal zone

that despite having now a goodi/valid DT describing 2 sensors and 2 thermal zones
embedding that sensors, only the first one is found as belonging to one ThermZ.
(this happens ALSO with v6.0 once I added the trips...)

Digging deep into this, it turned out that inside the call chain

devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info
  hwmon_device_register_with_info
    __hwmon_device_register
	hwmon_thermal_register_sensors(dev)
		--> hwmon_thermal_add_sensor(dev, j)
			--> devm_thermal_of_zone_register(dev, sensor_id, tdata, )

the HWMON channel index j is passed to the Thermal framework in order to
search and bind sensors with defined thermal zone, but this lead to the
assumption that sequential HWMON channel indexes corresponds one-to-one to the
underlying real sensor IDs that the ThermalFramework uses for matching
within the DT.

On a system like my SCMI-based DT where I have 2 temp-sensors bound to 2
thermal zones like:

thernal_zones {
	pmic {
		...
		thermal-sensors = <&scmi_sensors0 0>;
		...
		trips {
			...
		}
	soc {
		...
		thermal-sensors = <&scmi_sensors0 3>;
		...
		trips {
			...
		}
	}
}

This works fine by chance for the pmic (j=0, sensor_id=0) BUT cannot work for
the soc where J=1 BUT the real sensor ID is 3.

Note that there can be a number of sensors, not all of them of a type handled
by HWMON, and enumerated by SCMI in different ways depending on the
platform.

I suppose this is not an SCMI-only related issue, but maybe in non-SCMI
context, where sensors are purely defined in the DT, the solution can be
more easily attained (i.e. renumber the sensors).

At first I tried to solve this inside scmi-hwmon.c BUT I could not find
a way to present to the HWMON subsystem the list of sensors preserving
the above index/sensor_id matching (not even with a hack like passing
down dummy sensors to the HWMON subsystem to fill the 'holes' in the
numbering)

My tentative solution, which works fine for me in my context, was to add
an optional HWMON hwops, so that the core hwmon can retrieve if needed the
real sensor ID if different from the channel index (using an optional hwops
instead of some static hwinfo var let me avoid to have to patch all the
existent hwmon drivers that happens to just work fine as of today...but
maybe it is not necessarily the proper final solution...)

i.e.

    hwmon: Add new .get_sensor_id hwops
    
    Add a new optional helper which can be defined to allow an hwmon chip to
    provide the logic to map hwmon indexes to the real underlying sensor IDs.

... plus obviously the related scmi-hwmon.c patch to make use of this.

Any thought ? Am I missing something ?
(not really an expert on both subsystems really ... :P)

Thanks,
Cristian
