[PATCH v3 3/4] thermal: add more description for thermal-zones

From: Wei Ni
Date: Mon Aug 25 2014 - 02:31:04 EST


Add more description for the "polling-delay" property.
Set "trips" and "cooling maps" as optional property, because
if missing these two sub-nodes, the thermal zone device still
work properly.
