 will do no harm, but will return 'old' values.

-W8378* PROBLEMS
------------------
-Known problems:
-        - Some chips are misidentified.
-          This is caused by the chip having the wrong WCHIPID register
-          value, so there is no fix. The workaround is to use the
-          force_CHIP parameter.
-          (modprobe w83781d force_CHIP=BUS,0x2d where CHIP is the chip name
-           and BUS is your i2c bus number -
