Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH] thermal: imx_thermal: increase critical temperature threshold

The CPU temperature grade from OTP is now used to define the critical
threshold at which point we busyloop until we are below, however this
threshold is still too low.

Instead of 20C below the max CPU temperature, change it to 5C defined now
by TEMPERATURE_HOT_DETLA for clarity. Rename 'passive' to 'critical'
as that better defines our use case here. Additionally change the output
of the busyloop message to show the max CPU temperature as well as current.

Before:
CPU Temperature is 101 C, too hot to boot, waiting...
CPU Temperature is 101 C, too hot to boot, waiting...

After:
CPU Temperature (101C) too close to max (105C) waiting...
CPU Temperature (101C) too close to max (105C) waiting...
