Many hwmon (and other) drivers are named after one chip but support many, it would be quite pointless to state that in each driver's documentation, and I won't get it started. Guenter

It's been a while since the k10temp documentation has been updated. There are new CPU families supported as well as Tdie temp was added. This patch adds all missing families which I was able to find from git history and provides more info about Tctl vs Tdie exported temps.
