Subject: [PATCH v2] hwmon: fix potential sensor registration fail if of_node is missing

It is not sufficient to check of_node in current device.
In some cases, this would cause the sensor registration to fail.

This patch looks for device's ancestors to find a valid of_node if any.

v2: assign of_node from its ancestor to support sensor registration
