[PATCH 3.15 20/84] hwmon: (adm1029) Ensure the fan_div cache is updated in set_fan_div

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jul 15 2014 - 19:21:57 EST


3.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Axel Lin <axel.lin@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1035a9e3e9c76b64a860a774f5b867d28d34acc2 upstream.

Writing to fanX_div does not clear the cache. As a result, reading
from fanX_div may return the old value for up to two seconds
after writing a new value.

This patch ensures the fan_div cache is updated in set_fan_div().
