    hwmon: (lm80) Simplify TEMP_FROM_REG · 9028ff8e
    Guenter Roeck authored
    TEMP_FROM_REG gets 12 bits of temperature data in the upper 12 bit
    of a signed 16 bit parameter, with the integer part (including sign)
    in the upper 8 bit and the remainder in bit 4..7. The lower 4 bit of
    the 16 bit data is always 0. We can use that information to convert
    the temperature directly into display data (1/1000th of degree C).
    
    Note that the stored temperature data is not shifted right as the
    comment claimed, so remove that misleading comment.
