I couldn't wait and sent a patch to provide default calibration data,
based on the values and code from the ChromeOS kernels. It seems to
work OK-ish. I get 4x degrees C on my MT8186 device.

Also, your previous patch blocking invalid efuse data has landed. So
I think this series can be relanded. What do you think, Angelo?
