Well, that's what other hardware monitoring drivers export as cpu0_vid.
If you can read the value from the CPU directly, that would be
interesting, as this means that we can get the value even if the VID
lines aren't (properly) wired to the hardware monitoring chip. So, yes,
I'd say it's worth exporting from the coretemp driver if that can be
done easily and reliably.

Thanks,
