Subjectcoretemp support for Core i5 CPU
Trying to load the coretemp driver for CPU temperature monitoring on a 
Core i5 750 CPU gives:

coretemp: Unknown CPU model 1e
coretemp: Unknown CPU model 1e
coretemp: Unknown CPU model 1e
coretemp: Unknown CPU model 1e

Looks like this model needs to be added to the list in
drivers/hwmon/coretemp.c. Though this doesn't really seem like a very
good approach as we'll keep having to update this driver whenever a new
CPU model gets released. Intel has a CPUID field that indicates if the
thermal sensor is supported: "The processor supports a digital thermal
sensor if CPUID.06H.EAX[0] = 1." We should likely be using this instead
of hard-coded CPU model checks..
