From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>
This commit documents binding for thermal used in Northstar family SoCs.
There isn't any known Northstar device with active cooling system so DT
example has empty cooling-maps node. There is also no support for CPU
frequency throttling so I put only a critical trip in the example.

V3: Add thermal-zones to the example
V5: Extend example by including trips and cooling-maps. Update commit message

+* Broadcom Northstar Thermal
+
+This binding describes thermal sensor that is part of Northstar's DMU (Device
+Management Unit).
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : Must be "brcm,ns-thermal"
+- reg : iomem address range of PVTMON registers
+- #thermal-sensor-cells : Should be <0>
+
+Example:
+
+thermal: thermal at 1800c2c0 {
+ compatible = "brcm,ns-thermal";
+ reg = <0x1800c2c0 0x10>;
+ #thermal-sensor-cells = <0>;
+};
+
+thermal-zones {
+ cpu_thermal: cpu-thermal {
+ polling-delay-passive = <0>;
+ polling-delay = <1000>;
+ coefficients = <(-556) 418000>;
+ thermal-sensors = <&thermal>;
+
+ trips {
+ cpu-crit {
+ temperature = <125000>;
+ hysteresis = <0>;
+ type = "critical";
+ };
+ };
+
+ cooling-maps {
+ };
+ };
+};
