Yes, this is correct.

I suggest that you take a look at a patch doing the same for another
driver:

http://www.lm-sensors.org/changeset/4355

This patch was adding user-space support for the dme1737 driver. You
need to do something very similar, except for sensors-detect which you
probably don't need to change.

If you have specific questions on the way, feel free to ask, but all in
all, copy and paste and a bit of trial and error should work fine.

Please submit your patch when you're done, so that we can apply it and
everybody benefits.
