The 3rd example taken from the original binding uses 2 entries. So far
it seems there are no use cases requiring more than one, so I'm going to
limit this to 5 (the driver doesn't enforce a limit).

Will set it to 4, as suggested by Guenter.

As in the case of interrupts, the 3rd example uses 2 entries. Will set
the same limit (5).

Will describe its usage according to thermal-cooling-devices binding.
Thanks for reviewing,
