thermal: core: Add sanity checks for polling_delay and passive_delay
If polling_delay is nonzero and passive_delay is greater than polling_delay, the thermal zone temperature will be updated less often when tz->passive is nonzero, which is not as expected. Make the thermal zone registration fail with -EINVAL in that case as this is a clear thermal zone configuration mistake. If polling_delay is nonzero and passive_delay is 0, which is regarded as a valid thermal zone configuration, the thermal zone will use polling except when tz->passive is nonzero. However, the expected behavior in that case is to continue temperature polling with the same delay value regardless of tz->passive, so set passive_delay to the polling_delay value then.
