Yeah, but the follow through is intentional, if I am not mistaken.

Even if the driver is not able to read real temperature, but emul temp
is configured, then there is still opportunity to report the emulated
temperature.

And if you check the lines at the bottom of the loop, you will see that,
in the fail case, we will stil compare to what is the content of temp,
which might be problematic.

I would prefer we consider the patch I sent
some time ago:
