Agree. This looks a clear problem. Surely i will move last_trip_level
inside structure tz.

This will be summed up because after applying cooling action there is
some cooling happening but not enough to change the trip level. So
unless there is cooling enough to change the trip level I keep summing
the temperature.

Ok This variable is not needed.

yes because memory allocated with devm_kzalloc is freed automatically
when the device is freed.
