Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (nct6683) Enable EC access if disabled at boot
Git-commit: dbac00f0cf634120d77edee10d25e3f6899d7636
Patch-mainline: v4.17-rc3
References: bsc#1051510

On Asrock Z370M Pro4, it was observed that EC access was disabled after
initially booting the system. As a result, the driver failed to load
with
	nct6683: EC is disabled
After a suspend/resume cycle, the driver loaded correctly.
	nct6683: Found NCT6683D or compatible chip at 0x2e:0xa20
	nct6683 nct6683.2592: NCT6683D EC firmware version 1.0 build 07/18/16

Enable EC access after identifying the chip if disabled to fix the problem.
Warn the user that the data it reports may be unusable, similar to other
drivers for chips from Nuvoton.
