Models from 17h family report relative temperature, the driver aims to
compensate and report the real temperature.
On Family 17h and Family 18h CPUs, additional temperature sensors may report
Core Complex Die (CCD) temperatures. Up to 8 such temperatures are reported
as temp{3..10}_input, labeled Tccd{1..8}. Actual support depends on the CPU
variant.
Various Family 17h and 18h CPUs report voltage and current telemetry
information. The following attributes may be reported.

curr1_input Icore Core current
curr2_input Isoc SoC current
=============== ======= ================
Current values are raw (unscaled) as reported by the CPU. Core current is
reported as multiples of 1A / LSB. SoC is reported as multiples of 0.25A
/ LSB. The real current is board specific. Reported currents should be seen
as rough guidance, and should be scaled using sensors3.conf as appropriate
for a given board.
