Very good suggestion.

I agree that having such additional "signed-off markers", so to speak, 
in
a board dts is quite assuring.  I mean, someone implementing a new dts 
file
for a new board should simply know what needs to be done there, and 
there
should be no excuses for not checking the thermal throttling stuff.
