PMBus registers:

	PMBUS_STATUS_WORD               = 0x79,

	PMBUS_STATUS_FAN_12             = 0x81,
	PMBUS_STATUS_FAN_34             = 0x82,

	PMBUS_READ_VIN                  = 0x88,

         PMBUS_READ_TEMPERATURE_1        = 0x8D,
         PMBUS_READ_TEMPERATURE_2        = 0x8E,
         PMBUS_READ_TEMPERATURE_3        = 0x8F,
         PMBUS_READ_FAN_SPEED_1          = 0x90,
         PMBUS_READ_FAN_SPEED_2          = 0x91,
         PMBUS_READ_FAN_SPEED_3          = 0x92,
         PMBUS_READ_FAN_SPEED_4          = 0x93,

This is quite obviously a PMBus device. Why not use the PMBus driver ?
