[ 11/20] hwmon: (fam15h_power) Increase output resolution

[Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@xxxxxxx>

commit 941a956b0e387b21f385f486c34ef67576775cfc upstream.

On high CPU load the accumulating values in the running_avg_cap
register are very low (below 10), so averaging them too early leads
to unnecessary poor output resolution. Since we pretend to output
micro-Watt we better keep all the bits we have as long as possible.
