Closed issue by michael-db on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/42277

Description:
### Is this a new report?

Yes

### System Info

Void 6.1.11_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate rrFF

### Package(s) Affected

linux6.1

### Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

Not an upstream bug, but a misconfiguration resulting from a change, e.g.,
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2039030#p2039030


### Expected behaviour

`modprobe i8k` (or dell_smm_hwmon) should result in a file `i8k` appearing in `/proc`.
This is needed for the programs of the i8kutils package.

### Actual behaviour

```
i8kctl fan
can't open /proc/i8k: No such file or directory
```

### Steps to reproduce

On an x86_64 system, `xbps-install i8kutils` and `i8kctl fan`.

The cause of the problem took some time to discover, but the fix is simple. I will make a pull request.
