[PATCH v2 14/15] ARM: tegra: acer-a500: Improve thermal zones
From: Dmitry Osipenko
Date: Mon Aug 02 2021 - 17:21:25 EST
Use skin temperature for maintaining temperature that is suitable
specifically for A500. Add CPU thermal zone that protects silicon.
All these changes don't make a significant difference, but it is a
more correct definition of thermal zones.
