Yes, you have to add it to some init script, otherwise you'll lose the
device at reboot. Now the problem is that the bus number (4 in your
case) could indeed change over time. And once again nVidia make it hard
for us by not giving unique names to their I2C adapters, so we can't
even select by name. All you can do is hope that the numbers won't
change.

WRT to the output itself, I doubt that your card has more than one fan,
so you can probably add ignore statements for fan2, fan3 and fan4 to
your configuration file. The rest looks reasonable.
