[PATCH] hwmon: Documentation update for abituguru

Browse source 
Documentation update for the new bank1_types module param.

Also add what we know about different revisions of the uGuru and
a note that the abituguru driver unfortunatly does not work with the
latest and greatest motherboards, which have what I think is revision
4 of the uGuru.

=======================
Supported chips:
* Abit uGuru (Hardware Monitor part only)
* Abit uGuru revision 1-3 (Hardware Monitor part only)
Prefix: 'abituguru'
Addresses scanned: ISA 0x0E0
Datasheet: Not available, this driver is based on reverse engineering.
A "Datasheet" has been written based on the reverse engineering it
should be available in the same dir as this file under the name
abituguru-datasheet.
Note:
The uGuru is a microcontroller with onboard firmware which programs
it to behave as a hwmon IC. There are many different revisions of the
firmware and thus effectivly many different revisions of the uGuru.
Below is an incomplete list with which revisions are used for which
Motherboards:
uGuru 1.00 ~ 1.24 (AI7, KV8-MAX3, AN7) (1)
uGuru 2.0.0.0 ~ 2.0.4.2 (KV8-PRO)
uGuru 2.1.0.0 ~ 2.1.2.8 (AS8, AV8, AA8, AG8, AA8XE, AX8)
uGuru 2.2.0.0 ~ 2.2.0.6 (AA8 Fatal1ty)
uGuru 2.3.0.0 ~ 2.3.0.9 (AN8)
uGuru 3.0.0.0 ~ 3.0.1.2 (AW8, AL8, NI8)
uGuru 4.xxxxx? (AT8 32X) (2)
1) For revisions 2 and 3 uGuru's the driver can autodetect the
sensortype (Volt or Temp) for bank1 sensors, for revision 1 uGuru's
this doesnot always work. For these uGuru's the autodection can
be overriden with the bank1_types module param. For all 3 known
revison 1 motherboards the correct use of this param is:
bank1_types=1,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,1
You may also need to specify the fan_sensors option for these boards
fan_sensors=5
