The thermal code failed to get the current
temperature (via AML "_TMP" method) because
the embedded controller (or our interface to it) malfunctioned.
Likely the suspend issue has nothing to do with thermal per se,
and thermal is effectively pointing out to us that the EC is unhappy.

Failures associated with the embedded controller are now
by far the largest portion of unsolved mysteries
in the Linux ACPI implementation and we need to focus
on the EC in 2011.
