Thanks! That helped for therm_pm72 module, it works now as expected. (It didn't help for windfarm_pm72 though, if I put it in /etc/modules with i2c_powermac and remove therm_pm72, fans still go to full speed in a few minutes. It's not problem for now, but if I understand it correctly, therm_pm72 is deprecated and will be removed one day, so it could be problem after that.)
