ACPI: Allow overriding to higher critical trip point.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9129 lenb: Note that overriding a critical trip point may simply fool the user into thinking that they have control that they do not actually have. For it is EC firmware that decides when the EC sends Linux temperature change events, and the EC may or may not decide to send Linux these events anywhere in the neighborhood of the fake override trip points. Beware. note also that thermal.nocrt is already available to disable crtical trip point actios, and thermal.crt=-1 is already available to disabled critical trip points entirely.
