This hook allows moving the critical trip points down to a temperature which provokes a graceful shutdown before the hardware malfunction. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8884 WARNING: A trip-point override will not get noticed until the system delivers a temperature change event, or unless thermal zone polling is enabled. eg.
