EMC1444 is compatible with EMC1404. Add it to device ID table.

Is that some super-secretive chip ? The Microchip website completely fails
to provide information about it. It lists a chip with that name under
"Microcontrollers and Processors", but with no documentation whatsoever.
And it seems like similar secretive chips such as emc1442 may exist as well.
I am hesitant to approve this without datasheet. The chips in this series
have a lot of registers, and I don't really trust the vendor to be
consistent across chip generations - even more so if they think that
they need to keep datasheets (and even basic information about the chip)
under wrap.

Until more information is available, I would suggest to instantiate
the chip as emc1424.
