It's been a while, but if I remember well we couldn't use IIO for that
driver because it's not generating interrupts all the time but only when
it goes over a given threshold:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/52C5E9F1.9010700@redhat.com/

I'm not sure if it's still relevant, so we might just need to add an
hwmon driver to the existing driver
