Trying again..

SRU justification:

Impact: Newer 45nm model 17 CPUs ("Penryn", such as Intel
q9300,q9450,Core 2 Due E8200,E800, etc) are not recognised by lm-sensors, specifically sensors-detect.

The debdiff attached allows sensors-detect to detect model 0x16 and 0x17 CPUs.

Testcase: Without the patch (and the kernel patch https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/235119/comments/17) , the sensors-detect will not detect these CPUs. With the patch, the CPUs are detected.

Tested by therelic and Bart Verwilst.
