This will do as a quick fix, so:

However, I see that temp4 (which isn't a real temperature channel) is
not exposed in sysfs. Reading and storing register values you never use
doesn't seem particularly interesting, so something needs to be done
here: either drop support for temp4 entirely, or expose the temp4
values in sysfs.
