+SMBus Alert Support
+-------------------
+
+This driver has basic support for SMBus alert. When an alert is received,
+the status register is read and the faulty temperature channel is logged.
+
+The Analog Devices chips (ADM1032, ADT7461 and ADT7461A) and ON
+Semiconductor chips (NCT1008) do not implement the SMBus alert protocol
+properly so additional care is needed: the ALERT output is disabled when
+an alert is received, and is re-enabled only when the alarm is gone.
+Otherwise the chip would block alerts from other chips in the bus as long
+as the alarm is active.
