jruoho d6bb1884f1 Reference aps(4) and thinkpad(4) with each other.
In aps(4) note that sensor values are refreshed every 0.5 seconds, which may
have a negative effect on battery life.

(Since the sensors are purely descriptive and no time-sensitive protective
measures are being carried out, it would probably be a good idea to remove
the whole callout(9) from the driver and let the sysmon's poll cycle take
over.)
