[ Upstream commit e63d6fb5637e92725cf143559672a34b706bca4f ]

Enabling CONFIG_TAU_INT causes random crashes:

Resolve this problem by disabling each THRMn comparator when handling
the associated THRMn interrupt and by disabling the TAU entirely when
updating THRMn thresholds.

temp is actually what /proc/cpuinfo says it is.

config TAU_INT
bool "Interrupt driven TAU driver (DANGEROUS)"
bool "Interrupt driven TAU driver (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on TAU
---help---
The TAU supports an interrupt driven mode which causes an interrupt
whenever the temperature goes out of range. This is the fastest way
to get notified the temp has exceeded a range. With this option off,
a timer is used to re-check the temperature periodically.

However, on some cpus it appears that the TAU interrupt hardware
is buggy and can cause a situation which would lead unexplained hard
lockups.

Unless you are extending the TAU driver, or enjoy kernel/hardware
debugging, leave this option off.
If in doubt, say N here.
