Browsing through the drivers, it seems that none have been converted
to use the new interface. I would guess that until that has been done,
it does not make sense to add untestable support for it to libsensors.

Please keep in mind that most of the work done in the linux kernel is voluntary.
Especially work like this, which is a bit out of mainstream. You are always
invited to make a contribution yourself, modify the drivers as needed, and
submit your patches. Including, of course, libsensors.

Thanks,
