phosphor-hwmon should work with anything that implements the hwmon ABI.  
So I think to make PECI sensors work with phosphor-hwmon, you need hwmon 
drivers for PECI sensors.  I don't know if anyone is working on that.

I suspect the other sensor application - dbus-sensors supports PECI 
just fine.  But I don't know how it works, if it can be used without 
entity manager,  and/or if it can be run in parallel with 
phosphor-hwmon.
