Do you really want to allow the maximum power? What about if the trip
temperature is decreased ?

You want maximum power only if the mitigation ends.

Actually we have the trip points:

ACTIVE, PASSIVE, HOT and CRITICAL

The last two ones should not be writable.

Instead of this test, it would be cleaner to only make the ACTIVE and
PASSIVE trip point writable when the CONFIG_THERMAL_WRITABLE_TRIPS
option is set. Consequently, other trip points won't be writable and
this test can go away as set_trip will be protected by a RO sysfs file
property.

> + if (ret && t.temperature != trip->temperature && tz->governor && tz->governor->reset)

The temperature test is duplicated because it is already done in the
block before.
