In __hwmon_device_register() function of hwmon.c, we have assigned 'dev' 
directly to 'hdev->parent'. 
Formerly, when registering the hwmon device, we pass NULL as the device. This 
is not affected.
Recently, the developer has replaced the parameter NULL as the device by the 
actual device.
This causes the "No sensors found" error. This patch is to fix this error.

This patch is based on the v4.19-rc3 tag.
