[PATCH 1/2] platform/x86/drivers/acerhdf: Use module_param_cb to set/get polling interval

[Daniel Lezcano]

The module parameter can be set by using ops to get and set the
values. The change will allow to check the correctness of the interval
value everytime it is changed instead of checking in the get_temp
function.

[PATCH 2/2] platform/x86/drivers/acerhdf: Check the interval value when it is set

[Daniel Lezcano]

Currently the code checks the interval value when the temperature is
read which is bad for two reasons:

 - checking and setting the interval in the get_temp callback is
   inaccurate and awful, that can be done when changing the value.

 - Changing the thermal zone structure internals is an abuse of the
   exported structure, moreover no lock is taken here.

The goal of this patch is to solve the first item by using the 'set'
function called when changing the interval. The check is done there
and removed from the get_temp function. If the thermal zone was not
initialized yet, the interval is not updated in this case as that will
happen in the init function when registering the thermal zone device.

I don't have any hardware to test the changes.

Thanks for this patch, I'll test it in upcoming days.
