Again, you claim that the current driver would not work at all, which
is simply not correct. It doesn't work if the chip wasn't taken out
of reset by other means. This doesn't take into account situations and
hardware where the chip is taken out of reset automatically at boot,
or by the ROM monitor/BIOS. It assumes that the reset pin can _always_
be controlled by software.

Similar, it forces the chip into reset when the driver is removed,
which is even worse. Unload the driver, and no more fan control ?
Really ? Then why is there an autonomous chip for fan control
to start with ? This is questionable even if the reset pin is
optional.

You'll have to make reset handling optional for me to accept it.
I am quite sure that I said that before.
