PATCH 1/1 hwmon: Drop legacy ISA address support from

[PATCH] hwmon: Drop legacy ISA address support from it87

Drop legacy ISA address support from the it87 driver. All supported chips are Super-I/O chips, so the device ISA address can be safely read from Super-I/O space rather than blindly assumed.

Two nearby inaccurate documentation statements have been fixed as well:
* The IT8705F doesn't have an SMBus interface.
* The SiS950 doesn't have a distinct prefix.
