[regression] nct6775 does not load in 5.4 and 5.5, bisected to b84398d6d7f90080

Hello,

hardware monitoring sensors NCT6796D on my Asus PRIME Z390M-PLUS
motherboard with Intel i7-9700 CPU don't work with 5.4 and newer linux
kernels, the driver nct6775 does not load.

It is working OK in version 5.3. I have used almost all released stable
versions from 5.3.8 to 5.3.16; I didn't try older kernels.

Even on new kernels the sensors-detect finds the sensors:
        Found `Nuvoton NCT6796D Super IO Sensors' Success!
            (address 0x290, driver `nct6775')
but "modprobe nct6775" says:
        ERROR: could not insert 'nct6775': No such device
There is nothing interesting in dmesg.

git bisect found out the first bad commit is
b84398d6d7f900805662b1619223fd644d862d7c,
i2c: i801: Use iTCO version 6 in Cannon Lake PCH and beyond

Unfortunately I am not able to revert it in v5.4 to confirm it is really
the culprit.

Is there a way to have working hwmon sensors on my system in newer linux
kernels?

Thanks,

Martin
