The 85C readings are temperature measurement errors from the chip, probably
due to marginal power. Temperature "conversions" take a fair amount of
power.
OWFS automatically retries 85C 3 times. The prior suggestions of ensuring a
better voltage supply, or just ignoring the bad readings, are probably the
best option.
As a matter of accuracy, the collisions are true for ethernet (at least
prior to switches everywhere) but not 1-wire. The collision protocol for
1-wire is a very clever scheme (since each slave can only change a 1 to a 0
on the line) of enumerating the chip addresses by looking for "and" and
"or" logical responses in the address query, then addressing the specific
chip for further communication.
