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 ]

Description: Umwait control
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.
