I don't immediately see why this include file would be necessary.

#ifdef is unnecessary. Worse, it results in

drivers/hwmon/ltc4151.c: In function ‘ltc4151_probe’:
drivers/hwmon/ltc4151.c:182:6: warning: unused variable ‘shunt’

if CONFIG_OF is not defined.

checkpatch error

shunt == 0 is silently accepted and replaced with 1000. This is quite unusual.
Any reason ? If not, return -EINVAL might be more appropriate for shunt == 0.

This as well as the property need to be documented.

This is an unrelated change, and appears to be quite pointless,
since the driver does not have a detect function.
Any reason for adding it ? If so, please explain, and submit
as separate patch.

Is this now necessary again ? If so, please explain, and submit
as separate patch.
