mlxsw_thermal_module_trips_update() is used to update the trip points of the module's thermal zone. Currently, this is done by querying the thresholds from the module's EEPROM via MCIA register. This data does not pass validation and in some cases can be unreliable. For example, due to some problem with transceiver module. Previous patch made it possible to read module's temperature and thresholds via MTMP register. Therefore, extend mlxsw_thermal_module_trips_update() to use the thresholds queried from MTMP, if valid. This is both more reliable and more efficient than current method, as temperature and thresholds are queried in one transaction instead of three. This is significant when working over a slow bus such as I2C.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
