So the core of the issue is that the definition of the property changed 
in the txt to yaml conversion. The original definition was,

  Optional property:
  - contribution:         The cooling contribution to the thermal zone of the
    Type: unsigned        referred cooling device at the referred trip point.
    Size: one cell        The contribution is a ratio of the sum
			    of all cooling contributions within a thermal zone.

While the  new binding states,

  contribution:
    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
    minimum: 0
    maximum: 100 
    description:
      The percentage contribution of the cooling devices at the 
      specific trip temperature referenced in this map 
      to this thermal zone

Looking at the real world usage of this only 2 out of 17 platforms sets 
a contribution value less or equal to 100. I will send a patch to fix 
the bindings.
