[SRU Justification] (Vivid,  Trusty)

Intel systems that support the ACPI _ART object trigger a segmentation
fault when  adding this active trip point during thermald startup.

[Test Case]
Start thermald as follows:

sudo 
sudo thermald --no-daemon --loglevel=info

Without the fix, this will abort with  a trap on the segmentation fault.
With the fix, thermald starts correctly.

[Regression Potential]
Thermald will be correctly accessing _ART objects for thermal contol, if the 
ACPI is _ART objects are misconfigured then thermald will use these erroneous 
controls.  However, the impact is low as this is the general case for any 
misconfigured firmware.
