Polling to mitigate what?

The driver is using interrupts whenever new reading is available, and
notifies tz of the change. I don't have a reason to believe any new
values are available from thermal sensor outside of the interrupt
period.

That depends on ambient temperature. I'd say easily. My A83T is running
iniside enclosed space with no cooling other than dissipating heat to
the board.

Anyway, I'm running my A83T boards at 1.8GHz. And A83T can run up to 2GHz
at the best SoC bin.

I'll probably submit updated cpufreq table at some point too, once I fix
it up to use the SoC bin information.
