I don't think "jc-42.4-temp" is a valid i2c client name either. I
believe this should be fixed at the of->i2c level, rather than the
i2c->hwmon level. Not sure how other drivers are dealing with that, it
seems that in most cases the name part of the compatible string matches
exactly the expected client name so no conversion is needed.

Thanks,
