The ChromeOS EC APIs use integers representing degrees kelvin for temperatures. The default conversions from linux/units.h will then always convert these integer degrees celsius with a 150 millidegree offset. This is a bit confusing, as it also differs from other CrOS EC tooling. Internally the EC uses a kelvin to celsius offset of a round 273, so the current conversion is also not entirely accurate. Implement a custom conversion which preserves round values.
