I have a look thanks.
I'm using your v2 patch for the nvme part since you posted it on 5.4 kernels.
This is probably why I find the way the temperatures are now reported
very strange.
The ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro in my laptop seems to work better:
nvme-pci-0200
Adapter: PCI adapter
Composite: +37.9°C (low = -0.1°C, high = +74.8°C)
(crit = +79.8°C)
Low is 0° which is what the spec suggests.

Yes, I found this out already.

An lm-sensors configuration will work too.

It's not about disliking the values. I want to find out if these Samsung models
don't support that, or it is a bug somewhere in writing/calculating the values.
In the case, Samsung and others don't support such a thing wouldn't be
better to just ignore
the bogus reading altogether?
