Yeah, the nuvoton,tsi-channel-mask property is new this round, so I 
dropped the previous R-B -- and since it looks like I missed some stuff, 
thanks for taking another look (though perhaps some of it could have 
been avoided if I'd remembered to run 'make dt_binding_check').

Ack, thanks.

Yeah, zero active TSI channels is a totally legitimate way for these 
devices to operate.  TSI is just an optional source of additional 
temperature readings that's used on some (AMD) systems; all the basic 
Super I/O functionality works fine without it.


Thanks,
