[PATCH v1] thermal: core: Simplify list sorting in __thermal_zone_device_update()

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

Notice that it is not necessary to sort way_down_list in descending
order.  Instead, it can be sorted in ascending order, like way_up_list,
and walked in reverse order.

Use this observation to simplify list sorting slightly in
__thermal_zone_device_update() which also causes the code to
be somewhat more straightforward and so easier to follow.
