Ok.

The SoC product requirement is 120°C. It is capable of 125°C.
This was tested inside a thermal chamber and ensured that it
hits 125°C and system reboots at that temperature.

The linux kernel cannot take any steps to initiate cooling for
components other than the 4 CPU cores. The f/w that runs on these
IP blocks have to take steps to initiate cooling. Additionally,
the passive temperature for the non-cpu sensors are not
characterised yet and I don't have the values now.

We have these nodes to be able to read the temperature of the
other blocks via the sysfs entry /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/*/temp
Have given the critical trip point so that the setup is rebooted
if the critical temperature is reached.

Have given passive trip point for the CPU core related thermal
nodes (tsens_tz_sensor10, tsens_tz_sensor11, tsens_tz_sensor12
and tsens_tz_sensor13).

If this is not acceptable, please let me know. Will remove the
non-cpu nodes and post a patch with just the CPU entries.

Thanks
