In the probe function, the driver was reading out the thresholds already
set in the core, which can be configured by the user in the Vivado tools
when the FPGA image is built. However, it later clobbered those values
with zero or maximum values. In particular, the overtemperature shutdown
threshold register was overwritten with the max value, which effectively
prevents the FPGA from shutting down when the desired threshold was
eached, potentially risking hardware damage in that case.

Remove this code to leave the preconfigured default threshold values
intact.

Apparently this change is necessary but not sufficient, as the driver
is also disabling all the alarm bits which are needed for the
overtemperature shutdown to actually function. Will follow up with a
new version shortly.
