*sigh* I know. I've also got another 2 BluTek supplies I haven't got
round to dealing with yet.

Mercifully these attributes are all read-only. So at least we don't have
to deal with that.
It's probably not too late to return -ENXIO for the WARN_LIMITs and have
lm-sensors display the rated_max (we also have a custom consumer of the
sysfs API that I'd need to sort out).
