Yes, I do have a datasheet.  I'm investigating our confidentiality
obligations now, but I'm unsure what that outcome will be.  I don't
have datasheets for any other chips, so I can't really do a proper
comparison.  But the driver code for IT8721F seems to line up well
with the IT8732F datasheet.

IT8732F has up to 4 fan tachometer inputs, and up to 4 PWM outputs.
The "SmartGuardian" piece appears identical.  As I mentioned in the
doc change, it also has a fan tachometer closed-loop mode that seems
new (at least I didn't see any reference to it in the driver).  That
gets enabled by setting IT87_REG_PWM to automatic mode, and also
setting bit 2.  Temp sensors appear identical, with the obvious
exception of the 10.9 mV ADS LSB.

OK, I'll whip up a v2 patch shortly to address your comments.
