Looked at the patch you provided to upstream. There's a small typo -
the test checks for generation=2 || (generation=2 && major>=5). The
first generation check should be 3:
if (strcmp(p_uname->sysname, "Linux")==0 && (generation>=3 ||
(generation==2 && major>=5)))
With that small change, I was able to see the hdd temperature sensor
again.
Thanks again, Lionel!
