[PATCH] platform/x86: hp-wmi: Fix board_params typo for 8DD6 board

[Arda Doğu Ari]

When adding support for board 8DD6, &omen_v1_no_ec_thermal_params 
was passed as driver_data instead of &omen_v1_no_ec_board_params.

Because active_board_params expects a pointer to struct
hp_wmi_board_params, dereferencing active_board_params->thermal_profile
results in a type confusion bug and invalid memory access. Update the entry
to point to omen_v1_no_ec_board_params.

Hi,

When I added support for 8DD6 [1] &omen_v1_no_ec_thermal_params was
indeed the correct quirk. But because Radhey Kalra's board-specific
feature data patch [2] was accepted first, my patch probably lead to a
merge conflict that had to be resolved manually, which is why this is
subtle bug got introduced in the first place.

Thank you very much for observing and sending a patch for the same.
