Add hw-trips sub-node for soctherm, which is used to describe the hardware trip points for each soctherm sensors.I still don't understand why you are doing something custom here. What's wrong with what is defined in: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/thermal/thermal.txt
In current thermal framework, it support to set trip points for the thermal zones, but this trip point is handled by SW, doesn't have callbacks to program the hardware. There had patches: [PATCH 12/16] thermal: thermal: Add support for hardware-tracked trip points, http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mediatek/2015-May/000866.html, which can support to program hardware to set trip points, but it seems this series didn't be taken. So I add this hw-trip-points sub-node for soctherm. Hi, Sascha Hauer Thanks. Wei.
