thermal: imx: improve comments describing algorithm for temp calculation

The description of the implemented algorithm is hardly understandable
without having the right application note side-by-side to the code.

Fix this by using shorter and more intuitive variable names, describe
their meaning and transform a single formula instead of first talking about
slope and then about "milli_Tmeas".

There are no code changes.

* Sensor data layout:

* Use universal formula now and only need sensor value @ 25C
* slope = 0.4297157 - (0.0015976 * 25C fuse)
* The sensor is calibrated at 25 °C (aka T1) and the value measured
* (aka N1) at this temperature is provided in bits [31:20] in the
* i.MX's OCOTP value ANA1.
* To find the actual temperature T, the following formula has to be used
* when reading value n from the sensor:
*
* T = T1 + (N - N1) / (0.4297157 - 0.0015976 * N1) °C
* = [T1 - N1 / (0.4297157 - 0.0015976 * N1) °C] + N / (0.4297157 - 0.0015976 * N1) °C
* = [T1 + N1 / (0.0015976 * N1 - 0.4297157) °C] - N / (0.0015976 * N1 - 0.4297157) °C
* = c2 - c1 * N
*
* with
*
* c1 = 1 / (0.0015976 * N1 - 0.4297157) °C
* c2 = T1 + N1 / (0.0015976 * N1 - 0.4297157) °C

* Derived from linear interpolation:
* slope = 0.4297157 - (0.0015976 * 25C fuse)
* slope = (FACTOR2 - FACTOR1 * n1) / FACTOR0
* (Nmeas - n1) / (Tmeas - t1) = slope
* We want to reduce this down to the minimum computation necessary
* for each temperature read. Also, we want Tmeas in millicelsius
* and we don't want to lose precision from integer division. So...
* Tmeas = (Nmeas - n1) / slope + t1
* milli_Tmeas = 1000 * (Nmeas - n1) / slope + 1000 * t1
* milli_Tmeas = -1000 * (n1 - Nmeas) / slope + 1000 * t1
* Let constant c1 = (-1000 / slope)
* milli_Tmeas = (n1 - Nmeas) * c1 + 1000 * t1
* Let constant c2 = n1 *c1 + 1000 * t1
* milli_Tmeas = c2 - Nmeas * c1
