Part 3: Move the drivers documentation, plus two general documentation files. Note that the patch "adds trailing whitespace", because it does move the files as-is, and some files happen to have trailing whitespace.

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The MAX1619 is a digital temperature sensor. It senses its own temperature as
|
|
well as the temperature of up to one external diode.
|
|
|
|
All temperature values are given in degrees Celsius. Resolution
|
|
is 1.0 degree for the local temperature and for the remote temperature.
|
|
|
|
Only the external sensor has high and low limits.
|
|
|
|
The max1619 driver will not update its values more frequently than every
|
|
other second; reading them more often will do no harm, but will return
|
|
'old' values.
