TMP461 is almost identical to TMP451, which is already supported by the
lm90 driver. At the same time, unlike other sensors from the TMP401
compatible series, it only supports 8-bit temperature read operations,
and it supports negative temperatures when configured for its default
temperature range, and it supports a temperature offset register.
Supporting this chip in the tmp401 driver adds unnecessary complexity.
Remove its support from this driver and support the chip with the lm90
driver instead.
Fixes: 24333ac26d01 ("hwmon: (tmp401) use smb word operations instead of 2 smb byte operations")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
