reported temperature incorrect

[psimon]

this...

'cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp'

used to report Cpu temperature, but after some updates it now shows Gpu temp.

it now always gives the same temp as; '/opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp', NOT varying with cpu load.

surprised this hasn't been seen/reported by someone else yet.

of course it maybe recent and going unnoticed since the result is sensible, if you don't test it.

however if you are relying on it to stop cpu overheating, (uncommon i guess) then its pretty unfortunate.
