Emerging lm-sensors gives a message "Also make sure you read the documentation before running ${PN} on IBM ThinkPads." After searching high and low, I can't find any such documentation except ancient reports from 15+ years ago that lm-sensors broke the eeprom. It seems that this has not been a problem for at least 12 years; see this commit: https://github.com/lm-sensors/lm-sensors/commit/62705162404e55f5e21ca98fc709342cfa7eac5c "lm-sensors should now be safe to use on Thinkpad laptops." (Sep 24, 2007). So, we can avoid sending people on a wild-goose chase for documentation by removing this warning from the ebuild.
