[PATCH] I2C: i2c-piix4: Document the IBM problem more clearly

Properly document on which systems the i2c-piix4 SMBus driver will
refuse to load. Hopefully this will make it clearer for users, which
were often wondering why their destop or server systems were detected
as laptops.

Closes bug #6429.
