The first 3 seem a bit more similar to TMP117 (in terms of register map). Let's see what others have to add. But, all-in-all whatever driver you end up writing, the easiest method is to copy an existing similar driver and extend it. Sometimes, a part can be added to an existing driver. At a quick scan through existing drivers, it doesn't look like TMP117 is similar to existing drivers, so it may require a new driver altogether. I may have missed something though.
