Armin Wolf 6ebab74e09 hwmon: (dell-smm) Improve warning messages
When dell-smm-hwmon is loaded on a machine with a buggy BIOS
with the option "force" being enabled, it wrongly prints
that the buggy features where disabled. This may cause
users to wrongly assume that the driver still protects them
from these BIOS bugs even with "force" being enabled.

Replace the messages with two messages each which are depending
on the value of the "force" parameter. The messages which are
being printed when "force" is not set use dev_notice() instead
of dev_warn() since they only serve as a notice.

Tested on a Dell Inspiron 3505.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
