Do you mean that you still saw a crash in f71805f_find? If so, then
you have some problem with the way you rebuilt the kernel, or you
didn't boot the kernel you thought you did, or possibly that
CONFIG_SENSORS_F71805F is getting turned back on by a select statement
somewhere in some Kconfig file.
If you really turned CONFIG_SENSORS_F71805F off then there would be no
f71805f_find function in the kernel.
