What does it list exactly? Labels and values please.

Do the values somehow correlate with what the smsc47m192 driver
provides?

As this is a vendor machine, it is possible that it is using custom
logic for hardware monitoring.

Hmm. Not activated, but I/O port set (0x600 at 0x60). Nothing there
according to your /proc/ioports. Let's try to enable it:

# isaset -y -f 0x2e 0x55
# isaset -y 0x2e 0x2f 0x07 0x0a
# isaset -y 0x2e 0x2f 0x30 0x01
# isaset -y -f 0x2e 0xaa

After that, check with isadump that register 0x30 has value 0x01
instead of 0x00:

# isadump -k 0x55 0x2e 0x2f 0x0a

If it worked, try loading the smsc47m1 driver, and see if "sensors"
shows something new. If not, search your kernel logs for a new error
message.
