This seems reasonable to me. That way as hwmon drivers are added to the
kernel we have no extra work to do to enable the devices, and we don't
have work to do to keep a list of disabled devices.

The "extra" cruft is a problem if we're running out of space, but I
doubt udev rules and systemd unit files are going to be our first
concern there.
