-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jean Delvare <khali@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

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.
