By enlarging the GPE storm threshold back to 20, that laptop's
EC works fine with interrupt mode instead of polling mode.

This solves the bug https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45151

This function name is very generic. Maybe there will be different
thresholds needed in the future. Is it a good idea to name the
function ec_set_storm_threshold_20 instead?
