My first idea was to add hwmon to sun4i-lradc-keys.c driver. But soon as 
I began hacking the driver I quickly realized that it would be a mess 
since keyboard and hwmon belong to two different subsystems. Besides we 
would need to invent a way to control which way the driver works (new 
bindings?). So I decided that a new independent small driver would be a 
better solution.
