I did. We are doing the same for output voltage already, so I am not that
much concerned about it. If it is, we might consider adding _enable
attribute support (see Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface.rst) to the
PMBus core (presumably as virtual PMBus commands) and let the user
enable/disable individual attributes as needed.

What _should_ really be done, of course, is that the BIOS/ROMMON
configures the chip as desired. Obviously that is not happening here.
