improve support for IT8665E #1

hey there,

I found this fork upon google while looking for a possible patch to improve support for the IT8665E chip used on many AMD B-350 chipsets. Are you interested into trying to improve the driver? It gives faulty RPM and strange high/low temp ranges:

CPU_FAN:      836 RPM  (min =   18 RPM)
SYSTEM_FAN1:    0 RPM  (min =   41 RPM)  ALARM
CPU Temp:     +43.0°C  (low  = +93.0°C, high = +63.0°C)  sensor = thermistor
M/B Temp:     +37.0°C  (low  = -57.0°C, high = -35.0°C)  ALARM  sensor = thermistor
Chipset:      +37.0°C  (low  = +58.0°C, high = -44.0°C)  ALARM  sensor = thermistor

If this is solely to extend support for IT8613E, you can close without further explanation!

I also have a motherboard with IT8665E chip, and the readings are, well, bonkers. If there is anything I can do to help to improve the support, please let me know.

If I remember it correctly, I was able to debug it a bit: the values of CPU_FAN aren't those of CPU_FAN but most likely of SYSTEM_FAN1, and SYSTEM_FAN2 is undetected, even though its present of course.
