Uhh, sorry, it seems something got mixed up somewhere. As mentioned earlier in this thread already: The Studio XPS 8000 I have here never froze when loading or using dell-smm-hwmon. I only saw its CPU fan speed going up and down as described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100121 From the mail that started this thread I got the impression that all those problems are all related somehow, so I went testing the patch as asked.
