[ Upstream commit 3481551f035725fdc46885425eac3ef9b58ae7b7 ]
This driver doesn't have of_match_table. This makes the kernel module
tmp401.ko lack alias patterns (e.g: of:N*T*Cti,tmp411) to match DT node
of the supported devices hence this kernel module will not be
automatically loaded.
After adding of_match_table to this driver, the folllowing alias will be
added into tmp401.ko.
$ modinfo drivers/hwmon/tmp401.ko
filename: drivers/hwmon/tmp401.ko

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.
