Temperature

I installed your Debian stable minimalist image on my R5S (housed in its black metal box), added an NVMe disk (WD Blue SN5000), I boot into it and let sit idle for a few hours and `sensors` tells me:
The ambient temperature is admittedly 30°C, but that doesn't explain such high temperatures (it's hot to the touch: too hot to keep my hand on it). In comparison, the Odroid-M1 that sits next to it (with the same SoC, and not quite as idle) says:
% sensors
nvme-pci-22100
Adapter: PCI adapter
Composite: +66.8 C (low = -40.1 C, high = +89.8 C)
(crit = +93.8 C)
Sensor 1: +83.8 C (low = -273.1 C, high = +65261.8 C)
Sensor 2: +66.8 C (low = -273.1 C, high = +65261.8 C)
