w83791d: Documentation update
w83791d: Documentation update

The alarm bits and the beep enable bits are in different positions in
the hardware. Document the problem and leave it to the user-space code
to handle the situation. When this driver is updated to the standardized
sysfs alarm/beep methodology, this won't be a problem.

This is a documentation only change.

-    w83781d.c files, but its output is more along the lines of the
