Documentation/ABI: Document umwait control sysfs interfaces

Since two new sysfs interface files are created for umwait control, add
an ABI document entry for the files:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/umwait_control/enable_c02
/sys/devices/system/cpu/umwait_control/max_time

[ tglx: Made the write value instructions readable ]

+
+ enable_c02: Read/write interface to control umwait C0.2 state
+ Read returns C0.2 state status:
+ 0: C0.2 is disabled
+ 1: C0.2 is enabled
+
+ Write 'y' or '1' or 'on' to enable C0.2 state.
+ Write 'n' or '0' or 'off' to disable C0.2 state.
+
+ The interface is case insensitive.
+
+ max_time: Read/write interface to control umwait maximum time
+ in TSC-quanta that the CPU can reside in either C0.1
+ or C0.2 state. The time is an unsigned 32-bit number.
+ Note that a value of zero means there is no limit.
+ Low order two bits must be zero.
