IIUC, there is a sensor per couple of cores. 1 x 2Bigs, 1 x 2Bigs, 1 x 4 
Little, right ?

If it is the case, then a thermal zone per sensor with the trip points 
and a cooling device for each of them.

The two thermal zones for the big will share the same cooling device. 
The little thermal zone will have its own cooling device.

If there is the GPU, then its own cooling device also with devfreq.
