This gets negative values and than the core switches to fast 'polling'
mode. The values is decremented from 0 each time the
thermal_zone_device_enable() is called.

Then IPA is actually called every 100ms after boot w/ low temp,
while it should 1s.

Please see the logs below:

IMO we should check something like:
----------------------8<--------------------------
if (tz->passive)
tz->passive--;
--------------------->8---------------------------
because we start from '0' as init value.

Also, we have to make sure here, that we are align after some change
and be able to return with value to 0 (to switch to 'passive'
slow checks).
