The addition of the support for reading the temperature of ATA drives as
per commit 5b46903d8bf3 ("hwmon: Driver for disk and solid state drives
with temperature sensors") lists in the respective Kconfig section the
name of the module to be optionally built as "satatemp".
However, building the kernel modules with "CONFIG_SENSORS_DRIVETEMP=m",
does not generate a file named "satatemp.ko".
Instead, the rest of the original commit uses the term "drivetemp" and
a file named "drivetemp.ko" ends up in the kernel's modules directory.
This file has the right ingredients:
$ strings /path/to/drivetemp.ko | grep ^description
description=Hard drive temperature monitor
and modprobing it produces the expected result:
# drivetemp is not loaded
$ sensors -u drivetemp-scsi-4-0
Specified sensor(s) not found!
$ sudo modprobe drivetemp
$ sensors -u drivetemp-scsi-4-0
drivetemp-scsi-4-0
Adapter: SCSI adapter
temp1:
temp1_input: 35.000
temp1_max: 60.000
temp1_min: 0.000
temp1_crit: 70.000
temp1_lcrit: -40.000
temp1_lowest: 20.000
temp1_highest: 36.000
Fix Kconfig by referring to the true name of the module.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
