    it87: Add support for the IT8716F
    
    The IT8716F is a Super-I/O chip with integrated hardware monitoring
    functions. It is very similar to the IT8712F, so adding support to the
    it87 driver was pretty straightforward. The most significant change here
    is that the IT8716F has 16-bit fan speed counters, so the user no more
    needs to tweak the fan clock dividers to get the best readings.
    
    Userspace support is already in lm_sensors SVN (to be soon released
    as 2.10.1.)
    
    Thanks to Stian Oksavik, Olivier Nicolas, Prakash Punnoor and
    Juergen Kilb for testing the early versions of this patch.
    
    Thanks also to ITE for providing datasheets and answering my questions.
