Doesn't look like it.  You might be off by one, or maybe there's an
endianness issue.

FWIW, here's the code I used:

	int regs_to_dump[] = {0x28, 0x29, 0x2a, 0x3f, 0x630, 0x631,
			      0x632, 0x633, 0x634, 0x635, 0x636, 0x637};
	for (i = 0; i < sizeof(regs_to_dump) / sizeof(regs_to_dump[0]); i++)
	{
		unsigned int val;
		val = w83627ehf_read_value(data, regs_to_dump[i]);
		if (is_word_sized(regs_to_dump[i])) {
			printk(KERN_ERR "Reg %04x = %04x\n",
			       regs_to_dump[i], val);
		} else {
			printk(KERN_ERR "Reg %04x = %02x\n",
			       regs_to_dump[i], val);
		}
	}
