Hi Peter!


The code you are writing is communicating with a piece of
hardware that is expected to behave a certain way. Which package
the hardware comes in is utterly irrelevant for the behavior of the
hardware in this case, so please do not garble the name with that noise.
Then I should rename the files to nct6776 and change the name to "NUVOTON NCT6776 Super I/O", but add a comment in the file that this is for the NCT6776D and NCT6776F parts? Haven't seen any devices with another suffix, but I'd say that it would be better to add some kind of note to prevent possible confusion in the future.

The Flashrom folks have a way of dealing with this: http://www.flashrom.org/pipermail/flashrom/2012-July/009598.html

Personally, I'd just use a little 'x' in place of D or F in this case.
