We can't have the tsl2583_ prefix on the function with the
DEVICE_ATTR_{RW,RO,WO} macros. drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c is one of many
examples of this.

I will submit a separate patch to fix the prefix on the other functions
when I get to code style cleanups in that driver.

I'll add that to my list.

There are plenty of other issues to fix in this driver and I'll have
more cleanup patches. I was at a good stopping point and wanted to send
out what I had so far to get feedback. I should have let the patch series
sit for a day before I sent it out.
