We already have a patch pending adding support for the NCT1008: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jdelvare/linux-2.6/jdelvare-hwmon/hwmon-lm90-01-add-support-for-adt7461a-and-nct1008.patch
Your own patch should apply on top of this, and only focus on adding support for the new features. BTW, you stand a better chance of getting your changes reviewed and accepted quickly if you split them into logical steps. For example, suspend/resume support would be useful on its own, so it could be a separate patch, etc.
