This issue came up before, the main problem is that to reliably
identify ATK0110 you need an ACPI disassembler in user space (i.e.
iasl). OTHO atk0110 driver is loaded automagically and does not need
any configuration... so I guess that the problem with sensors-detect
is only for users that build a custom kernel; in this case a
suggestion based on DMI entries may be enough.
