Revert "hwmon: (coretemp) Refine TjMax detection"
This reverts commit 9fb6c9c7. Tjmax on some Intel CPUs is below 85 degrees C. One known example is L5630 with Tjmax of 71 degrees C. There are other Xeon processors with Tjmax of 70 or 80 degrees C. Also, the Intel IA32 System Programming document states that the temperature target is in bits 23:16 of MSR 0x1a2 (MSR_TEMPERATURE_TARGET), which is 8 bits, not 7. So even if turbostat uses similar checks to validate Tjmax, there is no evidence that the checks are actually required. On the contrary, the checks are known to cause problems and therefore need to be removed. This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75071 .
