This is designed for SoCs have one-wire PECI hardware which can handle
raw PECI protocol. Some drivers under 'drivers/hwmon' that use
PECI-to-I2C translation hardware are out of scope from this patch.
In case if an SoC supports both PECI-to-I2C translation mode and raw
PECI mode, only raw PECI mode can be integrated to this. NPCM7xx is
the case and peci-npcm driver in this patch set is an example of
the raw PECI driver.
This patch includes peci-cputemp and peci-dimmtemp as raw PECI hwmon
drivers.

I CC'ed you in every submissions but you probably forgot that because I
submitted v10 in January this year. Thanks for your review.

I see. I'll drop the default setting.

Currently, it's targeting BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) SoCs
that are running on ARM kernel. If any needs of ACPI support comes in
the future, the ACPI support will be added.
Thanks a lot for your review!
