Re: [PATCH] x86_pkg_temp_thermal: Fix the thermal zone type

[Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de>]

Rui, Eduardo,

We start getting more complaints from libsensors users, for example:
http://lists.lm-sensors.org/pipermail/lm-sensors/2014-March/041486.html

So it would be great to have this fix (and the following one) upstream
quickly.

Thanks,
Jean
