thermal: intel: powerclamp: Fix NULL pointer access issue

If the cur_state for the powerclamp cooling device is set to the default
minimum state of 0, without setting first to cur_state > 0, this results
in NULL pointer access.

This NULL pointer access happens in the powercap core idle-inject function
idle_inject_set_duration() as there is no NULL check for idle_inject_device
pointer. This pointer must be allocated by calling idle_inject_register()
or idle_inject_register_full().

In the function powerclamp_set_cur_state(), idle_inject_device pointer is
allocated only when the cur_state > 0. But setting 0 without changing to
any other state, idle_inject_set_duration() will be called with a NULL
idle_inject_device pointer.

To address this just return from powerclamp_set_cur_state(), if the
current cooling device state is same as the last one. Since the powerup
default cooling device state is 0, changing the state to 0 again here
will return without calling idle_inject_set_duration().

Applied as 6.4-rc material, thanks!
