Re: [PATCH v2] lm87: Allow channel data to be set from dts file.

Currently there is no method for setting the channel
value from the DTS file. When, the driver uses a dts
file to initialize the driver platform_data is not set.
As a the result channel variable may not be set correctly.

Without the channel variable set correctly, some of the
sensors will not be initialized correctly. For example
temp3 sensor sysfs entries.

This adds the required functionality to set the channel
variable from the DTS file. This is done via reading the
reading a property named "channel" from the lm87 driver.

Notes:
     changes since v1:
     Removed unncessary variables channel and np.
     Update the code as per review comments.
