The CONSECUTIVE_LOWER interrupts are generated if
ACTMON_DEV_CTRL_CONSECUTIVE_BELOW_WMARK_EN is enabled and ISR enables
the BELOW_WMARK_EN bit once CONSECUTIVE_UPPER event is received. The
CONSECUTIVE events are used in for the frequency boosting logic and
there is no boosting on start, hence the CONSECUTIVE_LOWER event isn't
needed on start as well. Hope this helps.
