[lm-sensors] [patch 1/X] pc87360: use SENSOR_ATTR_2 instead of

[jim.cromie@gmail.com (Jim Cromie)]

Patch replaces all uses of SENSOR_ATTR with SENSOR_ATTR_2 in hwmon/pc87360.c
This yields a tiny (0.5%) shrink in the object size, (so its justifiable
by itself), but more importantly, it sets us up to consolidate many of the
show|set_*_* callbacks into a much smaller number of them.

It depends upon hwmon-sensor-attr-array-2.patch

<aside>
Jean, I think the identical data-size means that 
sensor_device_attribute_2's
are not smaller than sensor_device_attribute's, probably because of 
alignment issues
in the array.
This suggests that maybe we should go straight to SENSOR_ATTR_4, with
4 u8's, or maybe even a union of u8 bytes[4]; u16 shorts[2]; int index;
</>


There are a few places where I could add line wraps, but this is meant 
as an interim
patch, and I expect the consolidated show_*() name to shorten it back 
up, and obviate
the need to wrap.  So I avoided the churn.



BTW, sensors still work, which (informally) validates the new mutexes here.
