User wants to know temperature of /dev/sda... and we already have an
userspace tools knowing about smart, etc...

pavel@amd:/data/film$ sudo hddtemp /dev/sda
/dev/sda: ST1000LM014-1EJ164: 48°C

I see we also have sensors framework but it does _not_ handle
harddrive temperatures.

Does it need some kind of unification? Should NVMe devices expose
"SMART" information in the same way other SSDs do?

Best regards,
Pavel
