Updating the hysteresis value when updating the critical temperature limit
was following the rule of 'least surprise'. However, it had the undesirable
side effect of changing the hysteresis for all other attributes, which
defeats the purpose of least surprise. In addition, it could result in
invalid hysteresis values if the resulting hysteresis was too large. In such
cases the resulting hysteresis ended up changed anyway, which again defeats
the purpose. So drop that code and document the new behavior.

Part 3: Move the drivers documentation, plus two general documentation
files.
Note that the patch "adds trailing whitespace", because it does move the
files as-is, and some files happen to have trailing whitespace.
