The ACPI vs. lm_sensors conflicts are not something you will easily notice. We
know that they can happen in theory, but when the race condition triggers, all
you'll get in most cases is simply a register read returning the wrong value (or
a register write writing the value to a different register.) And that's all so
unlikely to happen and so unreproducible by nature that nobody will probably
ever report it. Still, we know the problem is there.

Dave, I respect your fear of upgrading the BIOS. Let's try the git bisect
approach then, and when you have found the patch responsible for the problem,
report it here. I'll let it to the ACPI people to then suggest how the problem
can be (hopefully) fixed.

There are git bisect guides available:
