Ok you are correct and I am completely wrong, It dose not critical
temperate so easily.

I have enable CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG and tested with following.

# echo 'module thermal_sys +fp' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

Below is the  output of console for stress testing.

Ok I admit that thermal throttle is working correctly on my Odroid XU4.
Opps .... Sorry for the trouble.
