In your case I think that the monitoring chip is used for ACPI thermal zone:

>>> [root@XX ~]# sensors
>>> acpitz-virtual-0
>>> Adapter: Virtual device
>>> temp1:       +36.0°C  (crit = +100.0°C)

So that's the ACPI driver...
If you send me a copy of the DSDT I'll see if there's something interesting.
