> Currently the sun8i thermal driver will fail to probe if any of the
> thermal zones it is registering fails to register with the thermal core.
> Since we currently do not define any trip points for the GPU thermal
> zones on at least A64 or H5 this means that we have no thermal support
> on these platforms:
>
> [ 1.698703] thermal_sys: Failed to find 'trips' node
> [ 1.698707] thermal_sys: Failed to find trip points for thermal-sensor
> id=1
>
> even though the main CPU thermal zone on both SoCs is fully configured.
> This does not seem ideal, while we may not be able to use all the zones
> it seems better to have those zones which are usable be operational.
> Instead just carry on registering zones if we get any non-deferral
> error, allowing use of those zones which are usable.
>
> This means that we also need to update the interrupt handler to not
> attempt to notify the core for events on zones which we have not
> registered, I didn't see an ability to mask individual interrupts and
> I would expect that interrupts would still be indicated in the ISR even
> if they were masked.
