Commit 70762abb9f89 ("i2c: Use stable dev_name for ACPI enumerated I2C

/sys/bus/i2c/devices/ to be named as "x-00yz". However if those hwmon
devices are ACPI 5 enumerated their name became "i2c-INTABCD:ij" and sysfs
code in lm-sensors does not find them anymore:

Don't you think there will be regressions given that the new naming
scheme was around for 18 months?
acpi is pretty long term. New bindings don't show up quickly.
So I am not surprised that this only shows up now.
Will there be regressions ? Who knows. What we do know is
that there are regressions today due to the original change.
