[RFC] hwmon: (ibmpowernv) Add support for reset-history sensors

From: Shilpasri G Bhat
Date: Wed Jul 26 2017 - 01:56:57 EST


In P9, OCC allows for clearing the sensor min-max history. This patch
exports attribute to reset history when set will clear the history of
all the sensors owned by CSM and belonging to the chip.

This patch is on top of this patchset:
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg1453891.html

This patch creates a non-standard attribute called as reset_historyX
which clears the lowest and highest of all the sensors like power,
temperature, voltage belonging to the chip.
