We are two different use cases here:
One switch chip with multiple temperature sensors
Multiple switch chips, each with its own temperature sensor.
I don't know of any hardware using either of these uses cases, but
they could appear in the future.
If we are not doing the generic implementation now, how about avoiding
an ABI break in the future, by hard coding the sensors with .0.0 on
the end?
