If we enable continuous mode, which means SFCTEMP_RUN remains asserted,
the conversion finished interrupt will be raised after each sample
time (8.192 ms). Within a few minutes, a lot of interrupts are raised,
as showed below.

# cat /proc/interrupts

IPI2:         0          0          0          0  CPU stop interrupts
IPI3:         0          0          0          0  CPU stop (for crash dump) interrupts
IPI4:         0          0          0          0  IRQ work interrupts
IPI5:         0          0          0          0  Timer broadcast interrupts

If we enable continuous mode and drop the interrupt support in the
driver, the kernel will not know the interrupts but a lot of interrupts
are still raised in hardware. Can we do such like that?
Without the interrupt support, the temperature we read may be the value
generated in the last cycle.

I think the temperature has its value only when we read it, so we start
conversion only when we read the temperature. Further more, it will
consume more power if we enable continuous mode.

Hal
