Hi Luca,

I would be totally in favor of it if it solves actual problems (or any
functionally equivalent solution). I guess it can't be bullet-proof, as
both the native driver and ACPI can assume state conservation between
device accesses, which is no longer guaranteed with someone else
accessing the device, but it should indeed help solve at least the most
critical problems.
Can you please prepare a patch and send it to both the ACPI folks and
the lm-sensors list?
