[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 020/102] hwmon: (ntc_thermistor) Ensure iio channel is of type IIO_VOLTAGE

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.19.8-ckt3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Chris Lesiak <chris.lesiak@xxxxxxxxx>

commit adba657533bdd255f7b78bc8a324091f46b294cd upstream.

When configured via device tree, the associated iio device needs to be
measuring voltage for the conversion to resistance to be correct.
Return -EINVAL if that is not the case.
