Yes.

I think it should be all of them. Checking thermal zone device in a
worker was already there before 2.6.30-rc1 when moved thermal trip
handling to generic thermal layer from ACPI.

ACPI: move thermal trip handling to generic thermal layer
The ACPI code currently carries its own thermal trip handling,
meaning that any other thermal implementation will need to reimplement
it. Move the code to the generic thermal layer.
