Hello, list

There is incorrect information about required kernel version for 
coretemp to work on the page http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices

For example I have Core i3 550, but it doesn't work with 2.6.32 
(coretemp: Unknown CPU model 25), a newer kernel is required (I tested 
2.6.38).

So, I suppose it's better to use CPU model (0x25) or other stable 
information, but not marketing name (Core i3) for this table.

i3-550 is a Clarkdale core, which came after Lynnfield (which was added
in 2.6.32, as mentioned in the wiki). Generic CPU temperature sensor
detection was added in 2.6.35. I'll add a comment to the wiki.
