I am not kernel developer but I also think per motherboard voltage scalling is
bad idea in terms of maintenance. For the same reason hardcoding any of board
models in module code is rather bad idea and personally I would prefer to use
for example use_wmi=y module parameter or similar when resource conflict occurs
on module loading.

With regard to current voltage scaling factors for nct6798d chip, they are most
likely not correct and probably will require future changes. For example I
can't see +12V and +5V is sensors output when using current voltage scalling
factors.
