The LTC4286/LTC4287 driver uses rsense to scale current and power
telemetry. rsense is board-specific rather than a fixed device
characteristic, and may differ across qualified BOM variants using the
same software image.

If rsense does not match the installed board configuration, current and
power readings are mis-scaled.

Add a writable shunt_resistor sysfs attribute so userspace can update
the board calibration value after platform identification. Initialize
rsense from shunt-resistor-micro-ohms as before (or the existing default
when absent), and validate runtime updates before recalculating the
current/power scaling coefficients.

This series adds runtime shunt resistor calibration support for
ltc4286/ltc4287 via a writable sysfs attribute.

Practical use case: a single software image may be deployed across
qualified platform/BOM variants with different shunt resistor values.
After platform identification in userspace, rsense can be updated once
to match installed hardware, preventing mis-scaled current/power
telemetry.
---
Changes in v2:
- Clarify the practical deployment use case and refine commit message wording.
- Protect shunt_resistor show path with PMBus lock to avoid read/write race with store.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260903-hwmon-pmbus-ltc4286-add-runtime-shunt-resistor-control-v1-1-aca2d49a1418@amd.com

Applied.
