This is already exposed and we use it in user space.
thermal_genl_cpu_capability_event() is called from intel_hfi driver to
send the cpu capabilities.

Not sure what do you mean by  "don't see netlink functionality
exposed"?

thermal_genl_cpu_caps struct and thermal_genl_cpu_capability_event()
are defined in drivers/thermal/thermal_netlink.h.
