     it87.c - Part of lm_sensors, Linux kernel modules for hardware
              monitoring.
 
+    The IT8705F is an LPC-based Super I/O part that contains UARTs, a
+    parallel port, an IR port, a MIDI port, a floppy controller, etc., in
+    addition to an Environment Controller (Enhanced Hardware Monitor and
+    Fan Controller)
+
+    This driver supports only the Environment Controller in the IT8705F and
+    similar parts.  The other devices are supported by different drivers.
