This is a passive trip structure anyway, so the "passive_" prefix is
redundant here. "delay" alone would be fine.

I would prefer the if () statement above to be structured the other
way around, that is

status = ...
if (ACPI_SUCCESS(status)) {
tz->trips.passive.delay = tmp;
return true;
}

status = ...
if (ACPI_FAILURE(status))
return false;

etc.
