This controller is giving people some trouble, as it is shipped in more
and more laptops [1] and the fans can become quite annoying in these
systems.
In the past it was said that the main problem was the lack of a
datasheet from ITE [2]. Recently there has been progress from the
coreboot projects getting the info for quanta firmware on IT8518 [3].
Can this particular file help with the lack of specs or it depends on
other factors?

In my particular case, I have a noisy clevo p150em. I can help providing
testing and perhaps developing - just looking at the code of other
modules, it87, it seems to me I could give a hand beyond testing.
Thanks
