[PATCH] hwmon: (lm90) Use worker for alarm notifications

[Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>]

Reporting alarms using hwmon_notify_event() may result in a callback
from the thermal subsystem. This means that such notifications must
not hold the update lock to avoid a deadlock. To avoid this situation,
use a worker to handle notifications.

Fixes: e182cf579f0f ("hwmon: (lm90) Rework alarm/status handling")

Dmitry,

can you give this patch a try in your system ?

Thanks,
Guenter
