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.
