Commit 178c2490 ("thermal: step_wise:
cdev only needs update on a new target state") broke driver acerhdf.
That driver abused the step_wise thermal governor until the bang_bang
governor was available, and the optimization broke this usage model.

Kernels v3.12 to v3.18 are affected. In v3.19 the acerhdf driver was
switched to the bang_bang governor and that solved the problem.

For kernels v3.12 to v3.17, the bang_bang governor isn't available
yet so the easiest fix is to revert the optimization.
