[PATCH] w83781d: Don't reset the chip by default
Stop resetting the chip on load by default, so as to preserve the BIOS initializations. Same was done in the w83627hf driver some times ago for the same reasons. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
