That doesn't really describe what is done and why. See
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst, "Describe your changes".
The comment iin the code is much better.

While this is seen on Gigabyte boards, it doesn't _have_ to be Gigabyte
specific. Other boards i using the same chips (it there are any) may be

Why list boards with only a single chip ?

IT87952E ? Is that chip known to be affected as well ?

Don't add an entry unless known that it is needed.
