The thermal sensor bindings were not matched correctly against the

r8a77980.dtsi also used a different naming scheme compared to the other
related platforms.

It lacked the labels, which you added for consistency.
Is there any point in providing them, as there are no users? Or should
they be removed instead?

This series cleans up the dtsi files for the CPU target thermal sensors,
allowing the validation to run.

Enabling this validation shows up a new validation failure:

linux/arch/arm64/boot/dts/renesas/r8a77951-ulcb-kf.dt.yaml: thermal-zones: sensor3-thermal:cooling-maps:map0:contribution:0:0: 1024 is greater than the maximum of 100
        From schema: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/thermal/thermal-zones.yaml

This validation error appears to be pervasive across all of these
bindings, but changing that will be more invasive and require someone to
perform dedicated testing with the thermal drivers to ensure that the
updates to the ranges do not cause unexpected side effects.

Niklas?
