2023-11-25 Thread Theo de Raadt
For the temperature sensing drivers we have *intentionally* avoided doing writes to i2c devices. On many machines, ACPI/SMI retain control of these devices, and make changes behind OpenBSD's back without us knowing what is going on. We don't know if this will break a machine, do to their changes
