Hi Jean-Marc,

Thanks for testing and reporting.

You have a K10 (actually: family 10h) in both cases. What changed is
the device->driver mapping. At some point we thought that family 10h
support could be added to the k8temp driver, but now it seems that we
will have a separate driver for the family 10h CPUs. So this change is
expected.
