Seems like we may not calibrate the ADC correctly, this is weird.

I want you to be really sure that 15b0 doesn't change with temperature 
ON THE
PROPRIETARY driver. This is very serious if this is not the case.

If this is not the case, then you must have an i2c device from which the 
blob is
reading temperature and this device isn't detected by Nouveau.
