Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] thermal: change "hysteresis" as optional property

The property "hysteresis" is mandatory for trip points, so if without
it the thermal zone cannot register successfully. But "hysteresis" is
ignored in the thermal subsystem and only inquired by several thermal
sensor drivers.

So change "hysteresis" as optional properties.
