hwmon: (abituguru3) update driver detection
It has been reported that the abituguru3 driver fails to load after a BIOS update. This patch fixes this by loosening the detection routine so that it will work after the BIOS update too. To compensate for the now very loose detection an additional check is added on the DMI Base Board vendor string to make sure we only load on Abit motherboards, this is the same as the check in the abituguru (1 / 2) driver.
