Yep, it's probably that.
Temperature is read through these ports:
    OperationRegion (SEN1, SystemIO, 0x0295, 0x02)
    Field (SEN1, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve)
    {
        SEI0,   8,
        SED0,   8
    }

There was another bug report where these were also accessed via sensor
modules...
This should be caught by the acpi vs native interference checker in
future.
Bart: Those patches will pop up in next -mm release, it would be great
if you can give them a try. You should see a message in your syslog then
that a module failed to load...

Thanks,

    Thomas
