Upgrading to latest FluentBit - Node Metrics Exporter shows /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon* error

[kjq]

Bug Report

Upgrading to the latest FluentBit (4.1.x) started showing this error. We did just recently introduce a new node group for Nvida AMI's

[input:node_exporter_metrics:node_metrics] read error, check permissions: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon*

Talking with someone on Slack (who was very helpful) and I could find no reference of how to control this in the docs at the very least. He grepped the code and saw it was newly added.

To Reproduce

[input:node_exporter_metrics:node_metrics] read error, check permissions: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon*

• Steps to reproduce the problem:

Expected behavior
Does not show that error or I can control whether or not to include it.

Additional context
Flooding our logs, we are reverting to the 4.0x version for now.
