    One thing to check is that "make oldconfig" can actually change the
    configuration if things were moved behind a new top-level configuration
    parameter or such. I'm not saying that's the case here, but it's possible
    that things like the i2c changes might have made you inadvertedly changed
    some config option.

    It's a regression, although I'd like to know more about your cases. It's
    just hard to tell what happened: was it a i2c/hwmon driver that got
    broken, or is it some sysfs file that got buggered, or what..

    For example, "dmesg" output before and after (preferably as a diff between
    the two), and what modules you had loaded in the working/nonworking case.
