Generally, "temp" means "temperature" and "tmp" means "temporary".  The
kernel deals with both.  Btw "buff" means an 80s dude in a sleeveless
shirt and "buf" means a buffer, but the kernel doesn't deal with 80's
dudes so that one is less confusing.

But the name "tmp" still isn't really ideal here.
