superio/ite: Distinguish between chips for PECI readings
Some chips can read external temperature sensor values only to TMPIN3.
These use EC register 0x55, bit 7 to enable that. This patch adds
support for this. It is called "old PECI" by lm_sensors [0].
Other chips can read to any TMPIN[1-3] which is configured in EC
register 0x51 like the other temperature sources. This was the only
supported method. This patch adds a Kconfig option to indicate this
variant.
This patch was tested on an Acer Aspire M3800 which has an IT8720F that
reads the CPU temperature via PECI. It allows the automatic fan control
feature of the Super I/O to work.
Overview of support per chip in the coreboot tree, determined from
reading the publicly available datasheets or lm_sensors, if noted:
Old PECI:
* IT8718F
* IT8720F
* IT8781F, IT8782F, IT8783E/F
Normal PECI:
* IT8721F (exception: no PECI to TMPIN2)
* IT8728F
* IT8772E (uses separate code in coreboot, not superio/ite/common)
* IT8786E
* IT8613E, IT8623E (lm_sensors)
