In principle, the Step-Wise governor should take trip hystereses into

s/hystereses/hysteresis/

account. After all, once a trip has been crossed on the way up,
mitigation is still needed until it is crossed on the way down.

For this reason, make it use trip thresholds that are computed by
the core when trips are crossed, so as to apply mitigations in the
hysteresis rages of trips that were crossed on the way up, but have
not been crossed on the way down yet.

So this value in 'trip_threshold' might be lower than older
'trip->temperature', but not necessarily. Anyway, all good here.

LGTM w/ spelling fixed.
