[PATCH] hwmon: Do not forcibly enable via686a by default

Do not enable the VIA VT82C686A/B integrated sensors by default, as
disabled sensors usually means that this feature is not used so the
values won't make any sense. This has been confusing many users in the
past:

  http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/readticket.cgi?ticket=1811
  http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/readticket.cgi?ticket=2052

It is still possible to forcibly enable the sensors by using the
force_addr module parameter.
