[elrepo] nct6775: request for el7 update adding NCT6116D support

[Björn Gerhart]

Dear folks,

this summer, I’ve modified the nct6775 driver to add support for Nuvoton's NCT6116D family. Meanwhile, the patch has been integrated to the latest kernel release. So I would kindly ask you to provide an updated version of the kmod-nct6775 package in particular for el7.

In order to backport the vanilla kernel’s code for getting compatible with the el7 kABI, the following patch might be helpful:

--- nct6775.c	2019-07-26 18:27:08.247146034 +0200

If woman or manpower is lacking, I also can learn to contribute such work for elrepo.

Thanks and best!
