[PATCH] hwmon: Do not forcibly enable via686a by default 

Do not enable the VIA VT82C686A/B integrated sensors by default, as
disabled sensors usually means that this feature is not used so the
values won't make any sense. This has been confusing many users in the
past:

  http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/readticket.cgi?ticket=1811

It is still possible to forcibly enable the sensors by using the
force_addr module parameter.

Don't use this unless the driver complains that the
base address is not set.

The driver only updates its values each 1.5 seconds; reading it more often
will do no harm, but will return 'old' values.
Known Issues
------------
This driver handles sensors integrated in some VIA south bridges. It is
possible that a motherboard maker used a VT82C686A/B chip as part of a
product design but was not interested in its hardware monitoring features,
in which case the sensor inputs will not be wired. This is the case of
the Asus K7V, A7V and A7V133 motherboards, to name only a few of them.
So, if you need the force_addr parameter, and end up with values which
don't seem to make any sense, don't look any further: your chip is simply
not wired for hardware monitoring.
