i didn't know about the relation between hwmon and thermal.

Could you please do me a favor and do the following steps:
1. Check with your upstream kernel that the thermal_zone is successfully 
registered under /sys/class/thermal.
2. Please show me the (missing) hwmon sysfs entries on your downstream 
kernel, because i won't trust some userspace program like sensors.

Best regards
Stefan
