hwmon: (ntc_thermistor) Use the manufacturer name properly
Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd is the vendor for NTC (Negative Temperature coefficient) based Thermistors. But, the driver extensively uses "NTC" as the vendor name. This patch corrects the vendor name also updates the compatibility strings according to the vendor-prefix.txt Note: Drivers continue to support the previous compatible strings but further addition of these compatible strings in device tree is deprecated.

-resistance and lookup the corresponding compensation table to get the
-temperature input.
+The NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor is a simple thermistor

+compensation table to get the temperature input.
The NTC driver provides lookup tables with a linear approximation function
and four circuit models with an option not to use any of the four models.
