hwmon: (w83l785ts) Don't ask the user to report failures 

There's nothing we can do about read errors on the W83L785TS-S, so
don't ask the user to report them.

------------
On some systems (Asus), the BIOS is known to interfere with the driver
and cause read errors. The driver will retry a given number of times
and cause read errors. Or maybe the W83L785TS-S chip is simply unreliable,
we don't really know. The driver will retry a given number of times
(5 by default) and then give up, returning the old value (or 0 if
there is no old value). It seems to work well enough so that you should
not notice anything. Thanks to James Bolt for helping test this feature.
