I made my lm90 patch series available in branch hwmon-lm90 of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/groeck/linux-staging.git

The patches in this series were module tested and tested on real hardware
with the test scripts at git@github.com:groeck/module-tests.git;
look for scripts/lm90-real.sh and scripts/lm90.sh.
