Zev Weiss a9fba9f20d hwmon: (nct6775) Fix platform driver suspend regression
commit f4e6960f4f16b1ca5da16cec7612ecc86402ac05 upstream.

Commit c3963bc0a0cf ("hwmon: (nct6775) Split core and platform
driver") introduced a slight change in nct6775_suspend() in order to
avoid an otherwise-needless symbol export for nct6775_update_device(),
replacing a call to that function with a simple dev_get_drvdata()
instead.

As it turns out, there is no guarantee that nct6775_update_device()
is ever called prior to suspend. If this happens, the resume function
ends up writing bad data into the various chip registers, which results
in a crash shortly after resume.

To fix the problem, just add the symbol export and return to using
nct6775_update_device() as was employed previously.

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.
