struct thermal_zone_device *thermal_zone_device_register(xxxx)
{
	...
	if (!tz->tzp || !tz->tzp->no_hwmon) {
		result = thermal_add_hwmon_sysfs(tz);
		...
	}
	...
}

Does this mean "thermal_zone doesn't use lm-senser" ?
I'd prefer to say of_thermal registered thermal_zone doesn't use lm-
sensor.
If you're really want to see hwmon interface, I think you should use
thermal API (thermal_zone_device_register) directly.
Thank you for your feedback.
My driver is supporting both of_thermal and thermal API.
So, switching is not a big deal.

But can you teach me why of_thermal doesn't use lm-senser ??
