Subject: Re: [PATCH 4/6] ARM: tegra: Add soctherm and thermal zones to Tegra124

Mikko, soctherm doesn't "export thermal zones". I would rewrite your 
desription like this:

   Extend the Tegra124 device tree by adding the soctherm thermal
   sensing and management unit and by defining four thermal zones --
   one for each temperature sensor in soctherm.

System integrators have some flexibility in deciding how many thermal 
zones to define for their platform. For example, an integrator could 
define a single zone for the entire Tegra chip (giving a simple system 
at runtime) or with multiple zones (giving potentially higher 
performance near thermal limits). That's why I don't like the 
implication that soctherm dictates the existence of particular thermal 
zones.
