google/panther: Be safe about invalid thermal readings
In case we get an invalid thermal reading, let's run the fan at full speed rather than at low speed. This might impact the user experiance slightly in cases where the bad reading does not happen while the system is hot, but it will increase stability in the cases where the system is actually overheating.
Also, set the critical temperature below tjmax, because otherwise thermal shutdown by the OS will never be triggered.
