[lm-sensors] [PATCH] hwmon/smsc47m1: Restore missing name attribute

[Mark M. Hoffman]

> The smsc47m1 driver no longer creates the name attribute used by
> libsensors to identify chip types. It was lost during the conversion
> to a platform driver. I was fooled by the fact that we do have a
> group with all attributes, but only to delete them all at once. The
> group is not used to create the attributes, so we have to explicitly
> create the name attribute.
