2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

----------------
From: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

commit a44908d742a577fb5ccb9a8c082326d4cea234c2 upstream.

The low bits of temperature registers are status bits, they must be
masked out before converting the register values to temperatures.
