Subject: [PATCH RFT 4/5] hwmon: Implement hwmon_update_groups()
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 10:22:07 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260123182208.2229670-5-linux@roeck-us.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260123182208.2229670-1-linux@roeck-us.net>

In some situations the visibility of hwmon sysfs attributes may change.
Support this by providing a new API function hwmon_update_groups()
to update both visible attributes and thermal zones.
