Gui-Dong Han 96221a072d hwmon: (w83l786ng) Convert macros to functions to avoid TOCTOU
commit 07272e883f upstream.

The macros FAN_FROM_REG and TEMP_FROM_REG evaluate their arguments
multiple times. When used in lockless contexts involving shared driver
data, this causes Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race
conditions.

Convert the macros to static functions. This guarantees that arguments
are evaluated only once (pass-by-value), preventing the race
conditions.

Adhere to the principle of minimal changes by only converting macros
that evaluate arguments multiple times and are used in lockless
contexts.
