Might be a good opportunity to fix 16bit -> 16-bit.

I don't think multi-line comments in the middle of variable
declarations make a lot of sense. If such a comment is needed then I
suspect the code should be split off the variable declaration.

Care to add a trailing dot for consistency with other comments in this
driver?

While you're here, please change 8705 to IT8705F and 8718 to IT8718F.
This is the only place in this driver where the names aren't fully
spelled.
