When we list a device as supported in the wiki, it means that we have a
driver with useful functionality, not that 100% of the features of the
device are supported. When drivers have known limitations, we document
them in Documentation/hwmon/$driver. If we start giving details in the
Devices page, it will grow so fast that it will quickly become unusable.
