I wonder if it would make sense to split up the functionality in Matthew's
patch into two parts. Rather than a single sysfs entry at
/sys/class/thermal/xxx/passive, used to both add a forced passive trip point
and force polling for it, have two:

/sys/class/thermal/xxx/force_passive_temp (temperature at which to force
passive, default to actual passive trip if defined, or 5 degrees below
critical)

/sys/class/thermal/xxx/force_passive_poll (interval at which to poll for
tripping this temperature, default to 0)

Then for machines that behave like this one, the additional trip point alone
would be sufficient, and for any that actually need polling, that can be set
separately.
