It would be unreasonably stable for an actual temperature. Could be a
voltage sensor though. As I recall, the VT1211 has a configuration
register to switch some channels between voltage mode and temperature
mode. The driver assumes that the BIOS configured the channels
properly, but maybe it is not the case on Sergio's system?
