Why Guenter and not you?
Fine with me, actually. We don't expect individual driver maintainers
in the hardware monitoring subsystem, and this chip doesn't have an
explicit maintainer. Forcing people to act as maintainer for .yaml
files they submit can only result in fewer submissions. I prefer to be
listed as maintainer over having no devicetree bindings.

What does this example demonstrate? The one below seems useful, this one
I don't quite understand - what's the point of a fan controller with no
fans connected to it? What am I missing?
Just guessing, but maybe this is supposed to reflect a system which only monitors fan
speeds but does not implement fan control.

Otherwise, this looks pretty good.
Cheers,
Conor.
