Subject: Thermal: Ignore invalid trip points
From: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 81ad4276b505e987dd8ebbdf63605f92cd172b52 upstream.
In some cases, platform thermal driver may report invalid trip points,
thermal core should not take any action for these trip points.
This fixed a regression that bogus trip point starts to screw up thermal
control on some Lenovo laptops, after
commit bb431ba26c5cd0a17c941ca6c3a195a3a6d5d461

Thermal: initialize thermal zone device correctly
After thermal zone device registered, as we have not read any
temperature before, thus tz->temperature should not be 0,
which actually means 0C, and thermal trend is not available.
In this case, we need specially handling for the first
thermal_zone_device_update().
Both thermal core framework and step_wise governor is
enhanced to handle this. And since the step_wise governor
is the only one that uses trends, so it's the only thermal
governor that needs to be updated.
