Dropping underscore flags a lot of DTs in dtbs_check. Do you want me
to go fix them or can we live with the underscore. Is there some
document I should read on why underscore isn't desirable?
Fixed the rest.

Good catch. Unfortunately, this isn't getting caught. Nor is the
12-char limitation before -thermal in the thermal zone name. I can't
figure out why.
