Subject:
 [PATCH v1] thermal: ACPI: Invalidate trip points with temperature of 0 or
 below

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

It is reported that commit 950210887670 ("thermal: core: Drop
trips_disabled bitmask") causes the maximum frequency of CPUs to drop
further down with every system sleep-wake cycle on Intel Core i7-4710HQ.

This turns out to be due to a trip point whose temperature is equal to 0
degrees Celsius which is acted on every time the system wakes from sleep.

Before commit 950210887670 this trip point would be disabled wia the
trips_disabled bitmask, but now it is treated as a valid one.

Since ACPI thermal control is generally about protection against
overheating, trip points with temperature of 0 centigrade or below are
not particularly useful there, so initialize them all as invalid which
fixes the problem at hand.

Fixes: 950210887670 ("thermal: core: Drop trips_disabled bitmask")
