I do not remember which one, but one of the few one could find online.
Now i have datasheets for two chips directly from the vendor, both
files not publicly available and i am afraid i can not share.

Please hold this patch back until i confirm again. It might be that i
got the model name wrong as well and might have to fix some strings. I
basically started my journey with a preliminary driver i got from
Nuvoton, which maybe made me think i was looking at a NCT6116D while i
was not.

At least that is what the chip IDs from the specs seem to strongly
suggest.

I am sorry for the confusion and will try to clean that up.

Now having access to some of those specs, i can offer to add more
variants without testing. Such support would be in patches on top, not
subject to fixing what we have in stable already. But i would only do
this on demand and have a weird feeling about it, the code might be
trivial but i have no means of testing.
