Notably, this only printed an error in the kernel log. It didn't return
an error to the actual API, and instead it just programmed a 0 trip
point (or MASK, as of your previous patch). So you were lying to the
thermal core, which would still tell you that you programmed 68000 to
the trip point when you check:

  cat trip_point_0_temp

It's important to describe what you're fixing, so please reword the
commit log a bit.

If you manage to exit the above loop, you're assuming that:

	table->id[mid].temp < temp

I believe that's the case due to the round-down nature of the

  mid = (low + high) / 2
  
computation, but it's still a bit hard to reason about your binary
search loop.

Anyway, I think this is correct, so if you improve the commit message:
