[lm-sensors] PATCH: abituguru3-fix-detect.patch

Hi All,

It has been reported that the abituguru3 driver fails to load after a BIOS
update. This patch fixes this by loosening the detection routine so that it
will work after the BIOS update too. To compensate for the now very loose
detection an additional check is added on the DMI Base Board vendor string to
make sure we only load on Abit motherboards, this is the same as the check in
the abituguru (1 / 2) driver.

Regards,

Hans

p.s.

Alistair can you test the abituguru3 driver compiled with this patch on your 
motherboard and confirm that it fixes the issue (and still works).
