thermal: rcar-thermal: update thermal zone only when temperature changes

Avoid updating the thermal zone in case an IRQ was triggered but the
temperature didn't effectively change.
Note this is not a driver issue.
Below is a captured debug trace illustrating the purpose of this patch:
out of 8 thermal zone updates, only 2 are actually necessary.

[   41.120000] rcar_thermal_work(): nctemp=30000

[   60.490000] rcar_thermal_work(): nctemp=30000
[   60.490000] rcar_thermal_work(): same temp, do not update thermal zone
[   60.790000] rcar_thermal_work(): cctemp=30000
[   60.790000] rcar_thermal_work(): nctemp=35000
[   60.790000] rcar_thermal_work(): temp is now 35000C, update thermal zone

I suspect this may be due to sensor sampling accuracy / fluctuation,
but no formal proof.
