hmmm, why? you don't want an orderly shutdown? I still do not understand
why we need a hardware shutdown trip point.
Say, if we expect the system to be shutdown at 100C, I don't think we
have a chance to trigger the hardware shutdown trip point.
Further more, if my understanding is right, thermal core won't do
anything for the hardware shutdown trip point because the system will be
shutdown automatically, right? If this is true, why bother introducing
this to thermal core?
