Another comment ... I still have concerns about the pproposed changes to
therm_throt.c and the proposed interaction with term_throt.c in your second
patch. 

When you re-submit the patches, please submit both patches together and make
sure to include the x86 maintainers and the x86 mailing list. After all, 
it doesn't make sense to integrate one part of the patch into hwmon and not
get the second part into term_throt.c.

Also, please make sure the patches compile as modules before you resubmit.

Thanks,
Guenter
