[PATCH 4/9] of: Add bindings of hw throttle for soctherm

From: Wei Ni
Date: Thu Mar 31 2016 - 04:46:12 EST


Add HW throttle configuration sub-node for soctherm, which
is used to describe the throttle event, and worked as a
cooling device. The "hot" type trip in thermal zone can
be bound to this cooling device, and trigger the throttle
function.

Note:
- the "critical" type trip points will be set to SOC_THERM hardware as the
shut down temperature. Once the temperature of this thermal zone is higher
than it, the system will be shutdown or reset by hardware.
+- the "hot" type trip points will be set to SOC_THERM hardware as the throttle
+temperature. Once the the temperature of this thermal zone is higher
+than it, it will trigger the throttle event.
