    Scope (_TZ)
    {
        Name (\TEMP, 0x0AFF)
...
           Method (_TMP, 0, NotSerialized)
            {
                Store ("_TMP Method", Debug)
                Return (TEMP)
            }

And there's nothing else that touches TEMP (there's a different TEMP in 
the CPU setup tables, but they're in different namespaces). So _TMP 
always returns 0x0AFF, which is 2815, which is 281.5 kelvin, which is 
8.3 degrees C.

Looks like a BIOS bug.
