This PR doesn't directly fix what the issue OP is describing, but fixes some cases related to what is being discussed within the conversation.
Add extra checks for a bugged IT8792E chip. LHM not reporting the chip was because of LHM trying to enter the SuperIO at 0x4E and it causes the chip to report its ID as 0x8883. Not entering actually allows the chip to report correctly as 0x8733.
Implement an ECIO communication to the Gigabyte EC only present on some Gigabyte AMD boards which doesn't have SMFI enabled on the second chip. This allows LHM to disable the Smart Fan control to take control of the chip.
