MAX1617 and LM84 are stripped-down versions of LM90, so they can easily be supported by the LM90 driver. The most difficult part is chip detection, since those old chips do not support manufacturer ID or chip ID registers. The "alarms" attribute is enabled for both chips to match the functionality of the adm1021 driver. Chip detection was improved and is less prone to misdetection than the chip detection in the adm1021 driver. Devicetree nodes are not added for the added chips since it is quite unlikely that such old chips will ever be used in a devicetree based system. They can be added later if needed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
