This set seems generally good and could probably be applied as-is.  But I
have to ask...is there a reason to not take the last step and actually
bring this stuff into the Sphinx doc tree?

We seem to be mostly documenting sysfs files and such.  I am *guessing*
that perhaps the set should move to Documentation/admin-guide/hwmon?  Or
have I misunderstood the intended audience here?

Thanks,
