Looks good to me, fwiw:

Reviewed-by Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@xxxxxxxxxx>

But there is one issue, but this is not necessarily related to this patch,
more inline.

IIO reports temperatures in milli degree Celsius. So it should be multiplied
by 100 to get tenth degree like the power supply framework expects it. But
this might be a issue in your IIO driver reporting the wrong scale.
