The trip point type describe the way how system should act - use
active or passive cooling. It is independent of thermal driver. I do
not understand what is exactly wrong... maybe except whether the trip
point is active/passive looks like property of board, not SoC itself,
but your patch does not address it.

Which is perfectly fine. TMU driver for Exynos7 supports up to eight
trip points in interrupt mode so having polling mode = 0 is good. IOW
passive polling is disabled just like active polling is disabled so
what did you want to say here?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
