Other NTC thermistors can be supported simply by adding compensation
tables; e.g., NCP15WL333 support is added by the table ncpXXwl333.

Description

-resistance and lookup the corresponding compensation table to get the
-temperature input.
+The NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor is a simple thermistor
+that requires users to provide the resistance and lookup the corresponding
+compensation table to get the temperature input.
The NTC driver provides lookup tables with a linear approximation function
and four circuit models with an option not to use any of the four models.
