Ok no problem.

Ehhh I think critical_cold is the only correct one.
Thermal device normally have lowest low high and highest trip point. I
think the lowest has to match what we use for highest (critical). Using
coldest might be confusing and wouldn't display a critical condition of
low temp where the device can't work and immediate actions has to be
taken.
