Because there's no reason to believe that it's something that can be well
determined at the per-model level. I can't see any situation in which polling
could trigger bugs, other than the one described in #8842 (which this won't
hit). I appreciate the concerns about performance, though I haven't been able
to trigger any on machines here. If it's an issue, then we could simply skip
this on any hardware where reading the trip points takes a significant quantity
of time. I suspect that most of the thermal zone performance issues have
vanished now we default to burst mode in the ec driver, though.
