Bug Description
I'm running Kubuntu on my Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (4th generation). Since a recent upgrade to 20.04 LTS, I have the following problem.
Upon wake-up from standby the laptop's fan is sporadically set on max speed (around 7000 RPM) regardless of the actual CPU load. It helps to put the laptop to sleep and wake it up again. Then there is a chance the fan will react normally to CPU load and temperature.
Running sensors when the fan is maxed, I get the following:

And running it when the fan behaves normally, i.e. in accordance with the CPU load, I notice that temp1 is no longer N/A but has a value.
