thermal: add sanity check for the passive attribute
Values below 1000 milli-celsius don't make sense and can cause the
system to go into a thermal heart attack: the actual temperature
will always be lower and thus the system will be throttled down to
its lowest setting.
An additional problem is that values below 1000 will show as 0 in
/proc/acpi/thermal/TZx/trip_points:passive.
cat passive
0
echo -n 90 >passive
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
echo -n 90000 >passive
cat passive
90000
