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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
