The main reason I chose thermal framework was to utilize the temperature
threshold feature for notification on crossing a trip point temperature
without polling for smart log.

But the device I used for testing doesn't seem to report asynchronous
event immediately, so I'm not fully sure that's useful for now.

I have no problem with this nvme hwmon patch.  Maybe we can integrate
the temperature threshold feature into the nvme hwmon afterward.
