That's odd. I tried on a similar machine (w/o a radeon card) and it just
works with the coretemp module loaded.

Can you please do a CPU hotplug cycle (just one CPU) with the cpuhp events
in the tracer enabled. Send me the trace output so I might be able to spot
whats different and what interdependencies between other callbacks might be
there.

I'm traveling for a week now. I come back to this after my travel; if I
forget, please send me a reminder.

Thanks,
