036d6a4e75 ABI: sysfs-class-hwmon: add ABI documentation for it
Move the ABI attributes documentation from:
	Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface.rst

in order for it to follow the usual ABI documentation. That
allows script/get_abi.pl to properly handle it.

e1576396a7 hwmon: Clarify scope of attribute access
Hardware monitoring sysfs attributes are used and displayed by unrestricted
userspace applications. Standard attributes therefore have to be world
readable, since otherwise those userspace applications would either have
to run as super-user or display an error. None of those makes sense.
Clarify the expected scope of attribute access in the ABI document.
