How about "dtt"? That's what we use in U-Boot for digital temperature
sensors as well.
I vote against any acronyms that are not very well known.  Even knowing
that it's supposed to be "digital temperature <something>", I can't
figure out what the <something> is.  Not having the context that it
relates to temperature, I wouldn't have a clue what "dtt" is.

hwmon is concise and fairly obvious, and unlike "temp" could be
meaningfully used with chips that also monitor voltages, fan speeds, etc.

Uh, thanks Scott. Now we got it. I am fully with you and my "V2" patch
should make everybody happy.

So, let's apply this patch.
I already have it queued up.
