Here it goes:

[ 7.191081] dell_smm_hwmon: smm(0x10a3 0x0000) = 0x002e (took     1837 usecs)
[ 7.194007] dell_smm_hwmon: smm(0x00a3 0x0001) = 0xffff (took      151 usecs)
[ 7.198239] dell_smm_hwmon: smm(0x00a3 0x0000) = 0x0002 (took     1411 usecs)
[ 7.199095] dell_smm_hwmon: smm(0x02a3 0x0001) = 0xffff (took       71 usecs)
[ 7.700493] dell_smm_hwmon: smm(0x02a3 0x0000) = 0x157c (took   488912 usecs)
[ 7.701277] dell_smm_hwmon: smm(0x0025 0X0000) = 0xffff (took       71 usecs)

0x02a3 is I8K_SMM_GET_SPEED.
