The following patch adds support for the LM99 chip to the lm90 driver, on popular request. The nVidia GeForce FX 5900 series cards have such a chip on-board for monitoring the GPU temperature. Relevant pointers: http://archives.andrew.net.au/lm-sensors/msg07671.html http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/readticket.cgi?ticket=1661 http://secure.netroedge.com/~lm78/readticket.cgi?ticket=1662 Additional effects of the patch: * Do not consider the lm90 driver experimental anymore. I have had enough testers and not a single problem report, the driver is working OK. * Support the LM89. According to the datasheets, it is exactly the same chip as the LM99 (to the chip ID). We've never seen this chip in a computer so far, but it doesn't cost anything to support it (actually we cannot not support it, since we have no way to differenciate with the LM99). * Scan two addresses instead of one. The LM99 and LM89 have a "-1" variant using an alternate address. * Update copyright year. * Reword the identification code a bit. It is hopefully slightly less unreadable. This patch was successfully tested by Corey Hickey.
