On i.MX8QXP, there is ONLY 1 thermal zone available currently, but the thermal driver
is supposed to support multi thermal zones as well for i.MX8QM, in V9 patch set I just
sent, I use the " imx,sensor-resource-id " element count to determine how many thermal
sensors will be supported, so that we can also get rid of searching the thermal-zones' child
node, I improved the description as below, is it OK? 

 41 +- imx,sensor-resource-id:      A single integer for single thermal zone's resource ID or
 42 +                               an array of integers to specify each thermal zone's sensor
 43 +                               resource ID.


Thanks,
Anson.
