Should we rename the part to w83627 then?
That's too generic, many other Winbond Super I/Os start with that prefix:
w83627dhg w83627ehg w83627hf w83627thf w83627thg w83627uhg
(and probably some others)
How different are they? Is there any knowlegde about what the letters mean? ie. do dhg, ehg and hf share some "h" feature while thf and thg share "t"? Or is it more or less random, or even big internal changes like for the ICH southbridges?
We could do w83627th, or w83627thf_g or so, but I guess it's also fine to just keep one of the two names.
I don't particularly like the underscore, but w83627th sounds good.
I'll post a follow-up patch which adds code comments like "This code supports W83627THF/THG" etc. to all Super I/Os anyway to document this a bit better.
Please remember to add the change to our Flag Days page: http://www.coreboot.org/Flag_Days
