At some point we may have to look into the configuration ... using module
parameters doesn't seem to be right here. Should be platform data or device
tree. But that is for later ... just something to keep in mind.

What if it is < 0, ie if there was a read error since the device does not exist ?

in_data should be defined as int, and you should check for an error and
abort if there is one (previously that was covered in the "& 0xF000", but that
is no longer the case).

WARNING: quoted string split across lines
#190: FILE: drivers/hwmon/ads7828.c:196:
+ dev_dbg(&client->dev, "doesn't look like an "
+ "ADS7828 compatible device\n");

Better:
dev_dbg(&client->dev,
"doesn't look like an ADS7828 compatible device\n");

Just wondering ... does that introduce a rounding error ?
Would DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST be better ?
