Register 0x41 is named Interrupt Status Register 1 in the datasheet,
bit 5 is named SOURCE2_SMI:
	A one indicates the high limit of SMIOVT SOURCE2 temperature has been exceeded.
	(CPUTIN is default temperature)

But it exposes a register map (HWRE)... Might this be used to access
the hardware monitoring chip without interfering with ACPI? I'm not
saying that would be particularly nice, but I don't think we have any
other option, do we?
