Now there is no physical unit-address definition for those thermistors, so they shouldn't use this naming pattern, but rather something like "thermistor-0" or "thermistor-ap".

OK I'll rename thermistor dt name.

(They might be grouped in a simple-bus subnode, though, to improve readability.)

OK, I'll move ntc_thermistor node outside of ADC dt node.
